Literature Text

I’m reaching out into the gap to you,
To the mother I’ve never known.
Love me as you swore you would,
Don’t leave me on my own.

Take me out from the blistering cold
Of being in isolation.
Hold me in your loving arms,
Rescue me from damnation.

You owe me my childhood.
You owe me a living.
I’m giving you this opportunity,
I’m trying to be forgiving.

I’m willing to forget the past,
If you promise to be in my future.
This time we’ll make it last,
If only you would respond.

I’m reaching out into the gap to you,
Wishing for a reply,
But I’m guessing if you had wanted me,
You would’ve never said goodbye.
