TWO THOUSAND AND THREE

You left
I never said a word
The words 'i love you' i never heard
I kept quiet, you hated when i spoke
Maybe that's why you ran away with another bloke
I know you hated when i cried 
But i was only 2, mum i needed you
I grew up without you 
We never built a sandcastle on the beach 
You were never at my Christmas concert on the front seat
I grew up neglected and rejected 
By my own mum
As i got older my heart felt kind of broken 
Kind of numb
You eventually came back 
And we tried to make amends 
But the love you supposedly had for me was just pretend 
You left again
My life isn't the same 
I felt hurt by a person i was supposed to trust 
Was the love i had for you after all this time 
Still not good enough? I guess not 
Maybe you forgot i still cared 

I always tried my best 
You left.
