When you're home alone in your bed by yourself.

Do you sit there shaking?

Crying and wishing for someone to be there?

Or are you wishing that tomorrow you won't be waking?

As I sit here terrified

All by myself

I never knew how much

How much I needed my mother.

Damnit at this age

You would think I could maybe take care of myself.

But here I am

Too sick to even budge.

Crying and sobbing with a torn open throat

Nobody picks up the phone.

Nobody listens to the voice mails.

All you want is your mother.

You want your mom home.

No you don't.

She would have yelled.

I don't care I need her here.
