This I wrote for my mom
MOM:
Where were you when I was growing up? Where were you when dad was getting drunk? Where were you when I couldn’t stand the pain and almost put a bullet through my brain? Where were you when strangers came in the house? The answer is simple you weren’t there when I needed you the most. Now you think that I need you but I don’t. I did without you for 17 yrs and the truth is that I can go longer too.
