Poem...pretty sad it happens everyday :(

Mummy...
She was my lungs yet she left me gasping for air
My garments but i was left exposed and cold
My food but my stomach was always growling
My happiness yet everyday was grey
She was nothing she was meant to be
Nothing like a mother
More like a stranger, who i looked just like..
Oh the irony, I saw it everyday in the mirror

I always asked why? Why didn't she want me
Why is it only daddy filling in that empty space
It doesn't make sense, didn't she learn any manners
Abused and disrespected, rejected like a virus
Is it my fault you brought me into this world?

When i was six years old you told me love conquers all
You asked me if i understood; I nodded my head eagerly
Hoping that this story had a happy ending
It didn't... mummy why did you leave me in suspence, out in the cold?

If only i knew that a few months down the line
You would drop me at daddys and I would never see you again
I would have been like, mummy what is true love?
Because you chose your lover over me
Dumped me like old news
I guess daughters just aren't in fashion
Or is it just you?
