Drugs cause pain

Why did you choose a different path,
To focus on your own struggles and aftermath?
Seeking comfort in things outside our reach,
With every decision, you taught us a lesson to teach.
You left us longing, feeling lost in the night,
Craving your affection, a source of light.

But we were set aside, feeling so small,
As if we didn't matter at all.
Oh, how could you turn away?
Leaving behind the words we wanted to say.
You took what was meant for our
care,
And redirected it elsewhere, while we were unaware Why choose this journey, so harsh and unkind?
You missed the love that was
waiting to find.
No matter the bond, it's more than a name,
A mother's true essence is never to
shame.
Oh, how could you turn away?
Leaving behind the words we wanted to say.
You took what was meant for our care And redirected it elsewhere,
unaware.
It's been 25 years, the silence runs deep,
While you wonder why, in shadows we weep.
Perhaps one day, the truth will emerge,
But it might be too late, emotions will surge. Oh, how could you leave us with feelings so sore?
