Are You My Mother? Holidays are finally here Friends are calling full of cheer Turkey roasting, presents wrapped Santa's route, carefully mapped Snowmen sitting in every yard This time of year I find so hard Even those who argue most In their heart carry of Christmas toast Pumpkin pie with a cloud of cream Candy canes filling ever child's dream Lighted displays on the neighbors roof Left behind prints of a reindeer's hoof All around happiness, joy and smiles But I do no have it, and haven't for a while All I remember, from the time I was born Was being rejected and being scorn I wasn't wanted, I will never know why Every day I am reminded, every night I cry Who was the one who gave me away What was she thinking, what did she say Does she ever wonder, on the holidays Who I really am, and how I am today Or did she just forget and cast me aside I have no one here, in which I can confide I need to finally fill, this whole in my heart I want my life, to finally really start Every woman I see, I wonder just maybe Could she be, is she, are you, My Mom.
