" Mommy cries everyday, because He decides to stay out all-day.
She blames me, and curses my face, because He and I share the same gaze.
I miss when mommy would see me to sleep, now I'm lucky if I get to eat.
I miss when mommy and He were together in peace, she used to be so nice to me.
When trouble called to me, beckoning my name, even if I did no wrong, I still took the blame.
Why mommy? Why don't you call my name?
Why mommy? Why can't I say you gave birth to me...?
Did I make him leave? Was it my fault he didn't stay?
Because I remember him saying, 'it's not your fault son, I love you always'.
But, mommy you still shun me to this day, the day that the Man walked away.
I don't hate you, when you scar my skin, even though at the temples they say it's a sin.
And if this is so, then why do I reap for what I don't sow?
Why mommy? Can't you love me anymore...?"
