Abandoned

All she wanted was her mother to tell her she loved her,
instead her mother pushed her out the door.
She watched other mothers walk their children to the school bus,
giving kisses and hugs.

She sat there thinking what happened,
how did it get to this?
Her father never comes home anymore,
stays at work, the bar,
just walks out the door.

She no longer has the happy home,
no more kisses goodnight,
and no more sunday breakfasts.

So as she sitting there,
a lady; she will now call mom,
takes her hand,
leads her to her car.

She don't scream or fight,
but takes one last look at her home,
climbs in the car.
"I love you mommy and daddy."

She is now gone,
celebrating her 7th birthday,
with a lady she now calls mom.
