You Had Me
Airyonna Feb 2020
You had me
You left me
You never cared
I was your first kid
You weren’t prepared

On the lonely nights when I was sad
You were the one that made me feel bad
You weren’t there to wipe my tears
You weren’t there throughout the years

I could never forgive you for what you did
Do you even remember that I’m your kid?
You made me feel lost and confused
If parenting was a contest you’d lose

Call me or write me
Oh wait you never did
How could you do that
When it’s your own kid

You had me
You left me
You never cared
Your the reason I was scared

Years and years have passed
And still no word
The words I love you
I never heard
I’m just gonna pretend you don’t  exist
Because you never gave me one last kiss

You had me
You left me
You never cared
My most important memories
We never shared

If You Cared
Airyonna Feb 2020
I always wonder about you
Believe me it’s true
I always wonder about you
Even knowing the truth

I know you don’t care
Believe me it’s not fair
I always think what if
What if you did care

But if you cared
Drugs wouldn’t have even been an option
But if you cared
Visits could have been a motion

There was no motion though
No visits, no calls, nothing
But if you cared
You would have turned nothing into something

I’ve came to accept that you don’t care
I still believe that this isn’t fair
You get to decide to make some motion
But I’m like a failing boat floating in the ocean
I just sit back and wait to sink
While you can cause so much commotion

I have no say
All I can do is pray
In or out
Believe me either way I’ll be alright
Don’t come in and out though
Because then it becomes hard to fight

Falling apart
Airyonna Mar 2020
I’m falling apart
More and more as days go bye
I’m trying to win this battle
But at the moments it’s tied
Today I’m struggling pretty bad
Hopefully tomorrow i won’t be as sad
With each and every day
I feel like I have less and less say
I can’t control what’s going on in my head
Sometimes I hope that tomorrow I’ll be dead
The only thing I’m living on is hope
Hope that I can learn to cope

How to feel
Airyonna Feb 2020
I don’t know how to feel
I don’t know how to deal
I wanna cry and scream
I’m gonna smile and show esteem

I feel like I’m in a game
So how do I tame?
Do I show how I feel in risk of neglect?
Do I hide it and hope it doesn’t reflect?
I don’t know what to do
I don’t know how to think
When all I can do is try not to blink

Because if I blink
And tears run down my face
I risk being neglected
When a smile should have reflected
A smile full of lies
A smile full of pain
If they only see the smile
No one can gain

Gain seeing me weak
Because I couldn’t hit a happy peak
I don’t want them to gain
But it’s putting me in so much pain

— The End —
