"Now listen, my best friends mommy, I'm sorry For hugging you So tight" Is what I couldn't get my mouth to say Instead, "Sob, sob, sob" She dropped me off, my best friends mommy That day When my daddy shared his news "She's left" She was never really here, Believe me, She was never REALLY here Is anyone really with you when they don't love to be? Now listen, mommy These are the things I was sure of One - my tears burnt my skin as daddy hugged me hello and gave me the news Two - you weren't coming back, were you? Now listen, mommy, I was ten years old, still a baby Expecting the world (Not really) ( I expecting you to come home to)

Now listen, Mommy
