Sarah grew up alone. With no siblings Distant parents And no one to call her own So she birthed a baby A beautiful baby With blue eyes And no regret to her name She grew up And despised her mother When she spoke "I hate you" Were the few words she choked out Sarah laughed A sad, self deprecating laugh And said, with a smile and half, "I had no one I was on my own So i decided to have you And raise you ti'll you were grown But you've come to resent me And i don't know why The child i birthed for love Was a waste of my time"

A Child Birthed for Love
Sarah grew up alone. With no siblings Distant parents And no one to call her own So she birthed a baby A beautiful baby With blue eyes And no regret to her name She grew up And despised her mother When she spoke "I hate you" Were the few words she choked out Sarah laughed A sad, self deprecating laugh And said, with a smile and half, "I had no one I was on my own So i decided to have you And raise you ti'll you were grown But you've come to resent me And i don't know why The child i birthed for love Was a waste of my time"
