Unexplained

Mother, why did you forsake me?

All I wanted was approval.

 

Mother, why did you cut me down?

All I needed was your love.

 

Mother, why did you hurt me?

You're all I ever had.

 

Why did you push me to leave?

I just wanted to be me.

 

Why, Mother?

Why is it still unexplained?

 

Do I not deserve to be my own self too?
