You're Not My Mom

Take care of me,

Be there for me.

Never discourage me,

Love me unconditionally.

You're supposed to be my mother.

But you treat me like I'm nothing.

I'm sick of your constant disrespect,

The loss of love in your eyes that makes me want to cry,

It's itching inside of the back of my mind.

And someday I'll say goodbye to you,

You won't want me to,

But you can't make me stay.

You're not my mom.

But until then,

I'll be walking in the rain.
