why are you not here
why didn't you take me with you
why didn't you say good bye
aren't you going to protect me
why do you get to run away
when am i going to be good enough
i thought maybe if you loved me
you would have let me escape with you
isnt there any hope for a lonely child
take me away from his hurtful words
his angry hands
please come back for me
i will wait as long as i can
then i will be gone
i will have ran too
just like you, mom
