Colder

Pride

It has been much colder
Since you left me
Tell me
Have you ever thought
About me
Maybe just
Once

Well I've thought
About you
Many of times

When I was younger
I used to wait
Near the door

Remember that
Front door
The door entering
Into this house

Remember when
This house
Used to be a
Home

Remember when
Every time
You left that
Door
You returned

Remember that day
When you left
But never
returned

Well I remember
Waiting for someone
To return
Except you did
Nor wanted to

Was it me
Who made you
Leave

Did I
Push you
Past your
Breaking point

Just so you know
It wasn't completely
Your fault
Considering you
Inherited
The running gene

I remember
Soon after you
Left
Mom eloped

'Dad'
Doesn't like
Me very
Much

Do you know
That under
Legal documents
I'm referred
As a
Ward

I still hope
That one day
You will return

I hope
That mom
Will want me
Again

I hope that
Someone someday
Will call me
Their daughter
With pride
