Hey mum
Why'd you give up on me?
Wasn't i worth your love?
Worth your time and pride?
Was i a terrible child?
Is that why you pushed me away?
Made me feel like i was nothing?
A mistake
A worthless peice of flesh staining your perfect life
Hey dad
Why'd you ignore me?
you closed your eyes to your eldest
left her in distress
All those times you saw me in pain
Crying until i was sick
Breaking down on my bedroom floor
Screaming for the love you no longer gave me
Hey sis
Why dont you have my back?
I was there for you when you needed me
I raised you when mum abandoned us
Is this the thanks i deserve?
Being told to leave your home?
Told you hated me?
Is all the protection I gave you worth the shit you give me now?
Hey baby
I know you love me
But why'd you give up?
Is our love conditional?
You can love me when im sunshine
But my dark side brews and you're gone?
Should i hide part of me to keep you?
The man i love every part of unconditionally?
hey God
Why'd you forsake me?
You love all yet I suffer
Millions suffer in your name
How can a so called benevolent god
Forsake so many of the children he loves?
Why do you allow good people to suffer
And bad people to prosper?
Whats the point of a life of no love
A life where my faith is gone
Not even an adult yet
And my faith in the world is gone
Thanks Mum, Dad, Sis, Baby
Thanks for the abandonment, the guilt
And Thank you God.
For pain.
Because without pain
Id feel nothing.
