I have decided to write you a letter of sorts In the hope that maybe, I can get enough words in before you tell me I'm wrong. I don't know why I had this expectation of you playing this motherly role Clearly, my hopes were misplaced. I'd like to apologise for holding you higher than your actions showed I'd like to thank you, for doing what you could. I cannot say that you didn't do what you thought was best But its funny how the one who has known me the longest Knows me the least You know nothing of my hopes and dreams Yet you feel capable of making judgements on my behalf That is not your call to make Its kind of funny really You told me it is a parents job to reach out A child shouldn't have to fight for their parents support And here we are again Only this time its you who have distanced away I'm tired of seeking you out To find you've nothing to say I've tried to ease your discomfort Its a little difficult to do right by you When everything is smothered in pretence
I don't want to fight any longer For someone who can toss me away You can call me When you've got something to say
