Where were you?

Daddy Where were you? When my baby brothers died? Where were you? When my loney mother cried? Where were you? When I had naught to eat? Where were you? When I couldn't get to sleep? Where were you? When mommy lost her job? Where were you? When she was mugged and robbed? Where were you? When I was only five? Where were you? When I was swarmed by that behive? Where were you? When I moved to Chicago? Where were you? When I was scared and had to go? Where were you?? Mommy Where were you? When I had my first formal? Where were you? When I cried 'cause it was horrible? Where were you? When I started failing school? Where were you? When I thought that smoking was cool? Where were you? When I cried alone at night? Where were you? When I was screaming out of fright Where were you? When I almost died by drowning? Where were you? When Gramma started frowning? Where were you? When your mother almost died? Where were you? When your sister begged and cried? Where were you? When I finally got my black belt? Where were you? When I wanted to tell you how I felt? Where were you? When the kids taunted and shoved? Where were you? When I felt so unloved? Where were you?? Where were you both??There's more....there's far more.... Written February 9th, 2002 © on Feb 09 2002 01:37 AM PST, Shayla Carter   18 • 0 • 1
