I want to be like you. br Aways have, br and always will. br I loved you with all my heart. br Wished you were always there. br Wished I could be there. br I tired I really did. br I tried to get you to love me. br Tried to get you to br notice that I was there. br That I was alive, br and still your daughter. br Here I am 15 years later br feeling like I am my own mother. br You were never there, br never there for anything br that was for me. br Not to see me in my shinning moments, br not even when I just br wanted you there. br You came up with somehting, br anything just to get out of it. br I loved you. br I look over the pain you caused me br and hoped that one day br you would be different. br But here I am 15 years later br still look for my mother. br You say you are my mother, br but I say your not. br You say you love me, br well then prove it. br You say you have, br well I say you haven't. br 15 years have gone by and still br nothing has changed. br I pray to god that I am not like that br with my daughter. br I will be there for her br when she is shinning. br So when she looks out into br the sea of people, br she sees me with a smile br on my face and br my eyes shining with pride. br Even when it is somehting little br she will see me, and know that I love her. br Know I will be there to the very end. br That I will pick her up when she falls. br I will love her when she falls and gets hurt. br I will cry with her when that boy breaks her heart. br I will do all the things br that you never did for me. br I will do all the things br I wished you did for me. br Cause 15 years from now br my daughter will be here br and she will know that I love her br more than anything else in the world.
