you didn't raise me
you didn't rush me to the hospital when I ripped my nose open
you didn't call on my birthdays
you didn't hold me sunday mornings before church
you never made me breakfast, lunch, or dinner
you didn't drive me to school
you didn't teach me how to tie my shoes
you didn't buy me clothes, book bags, or makeup when I started to grow up
you didn't care for years of my life and now... suddenly everything is okay?
and you want me to go out of my way to pack up my bags and move so I can be closer to you?
you want me to leave behind the only people that gave me all the love you never gave for years and years while I cried myself to sleep?
how are you that selfish?
and it's incredible that all that time that passed...
you didn't even love me
