All alone in the world since three
All my life I've been alone you see
My Mommy and Daddy didn't want, me
I was a problematic child, from the age of 3
A raging temper inside me
Screaming crying, often alone and left to fend.
Fighting the demons hidden under my bed
Scared and alone calling out for a loving hand to hold
Mommy Mommy why were you so envious of me, was it because Daddy wanted me?
Daddy Daddy why didn't you protect me, you left and I was only 3
I only ever wanted your love and affection you see, and you couldn't even offer that to me.
Screaming and crying often alone, why couldn't you be my loving safe home?
Your past dramas, should never have become my future traumas
