Letter To My BirthMother

You knew in your heart the right thing to do,
hand on your belly, I grew and grew.
I was made out of passion, got caught from the past,
your relationship ended, it happened so fast.

What were you thinking? I haven't a clue,
I twisted your world, left you feeling real blue.
I'd heard that you just didn't have a say,
and after my birth, I got taken away.

The truth was well hidden from everyone's view,
but then again maybe there's some that just knew.
When I arrived on that fateful day,
I'm sure you had asked, "is my baby ok?"

Did you get one small peek as the nurse walked on by?
I'm sure that you heard me, you're daughters first cry.
The past haunts forever, we'll never forget,
what was supposed to be special was far from perfect.

Time doesn't heal as the mystery taunts strong,
leaves me hear tortured, how'd they get it all wrong?
Have you ever wandered if I'm happy or sad,
or if somebody out there is treating me bad?

Until you find out then you'll never know,
but if given the chance then we'll heal and let go.
