Neglect

My mother didn’t want me
She kicked me out of the way
What she had against me
I can’t really say
I had been inside her many months
In the great dark warm embrace
Swimming in her water
Dreaming of her face
Hoping she would love
Knowing I would her
Then I was born
And kind of torn
And what did occur

She kicked me right across the floor
Indifferent about me
I thought I was beautiful
I hoped she would agree
I mean to say I was half of her
Her devotion she should share
Where was her generosity
Wasn’t she aware

She was so unamiable
Unfriendly and real stern
She actually kicked me, and it hurt
And it, wasn’t my turn
She should have had a heart of gold
She should have loved me so
I loved her from the moment
That I saw her do you know

To realise her hatred of me
Got into my core
I remember crying for 5 hours
Until my eyes were sore
I remember I could see her
And, she could see me
But didn’t give a toss at all
And she heard every plea

Perhaps it was down to father
Perhaps she hated him
And because i had some of his genes
And that could have made me dim
That is now the reason why she just hates me
Neglects to love me as she should
And as it ought to be
