Here is my truth,

I had you at fourteen,

And all the pain you feel right now,

Is all because of me,

You couldn't take that field trip,

Because I couldn't afford your leave,

You weren't aloud to go to church,

Because god never answered my plea,

I didn't spend much time with you,

When you held your arms up high,

But now I look back on it,

And wish I swung you to the sky,

You never got that chance,

The chance tomake me smile,

Because I never let you dance,

In my heart for not even awhile,

I never listened when you wanted to talk,

And because of that I'm walking my lonely walk,

I cannot tell you how sorry I am,

For failing as your mother and ran,

You shouldn't have gone to that foster home,

You shouldn't have been told what to do,

I was supposed to raise my sweet baby,

I was supposed to love you,

But now that you are older,

And my life is finally done,

I wish though I don't deserve it,

Please give me another chance son…
