Dear son
I’m sorry I left you at this vulnerable time, always knew I just wouldn’t cope
The doctors telling me, that you’d never regain your senses, there’s no hope
I couldn’t handle seeing my little boy going through his life so tormented
You had such an imagination, no limit to the stories that you invented
Your eyes used to sparkle but after the accident you lost your personality
Losing my mentality, you were to young to become the victim of a fatality
I know you want me to come back, but I can’t, the real me, I’m seeking
Hope they can get in touch with me, when you finally start speaking
Dear mother
I said my first words since the accident, with all my thoughts compiled
I smiled, looked them in the eye and uttered “I’m such a lonely child”
My mother abandoned me and left me to deal with life’s hard trial
In disbelief when I was born, but tell me ma’, are you still in denial?
How can you justify leaving me, when it was only you that I needed
Sneaking out in the night, no second thoughts, you just proceeded
What was it ma’? did I ruin your reputation being so far from the “norm”
How can it be that selfishness is the only emotion you’re able to perform
Dear son
I got your letter, you sound bitter, but you know I don’t deserve the blame
Such a shame, that after the accident I had no control over what became
I had to leave, gather my thoughts, give you some space and make a break
To be honest son, the truth is, giving birth to you was a terrible mistake
I’m glad your finally talking again son, its good that we keep in touch
Hope you can get on with your life now and don’t think of me too much
Dear mother
A MISTAKE!!!, you said you wanted me to be a part of your world
Is that why, you don’t care about me, into my own life I was hurled
I dreamt about you last night ma’, I kept seeing us in different places
Now today there’s so many holes in my heart, I can’t fill the spaces
I’ve realised what I need to do, I hear the skies, me their calling
Goodbye ma’, I think its kicking in now, I feel like I’m falling
Dear son
I haven’t heard from you in a while, your last letter, I can’t recall
Tell me son, is it that you’ve taken your life, did you really end it all………
