Never

"Never"

Dear mother, where did you think I would go,
When you gave me away, so long ago?
Did you think that I would forget,
That we never really met?

I am determined to find,
that which is mine.
That which was whisked away,
Twenty one years ago, today.

I am entitled to know,
Wherever I go,
Who was my first mother,
Who can replace no other.

Will it be fine someday,
Will I need to find a way?
To step into your heart,
Where they won't tear us apart... again.

Will you open your life,
Though it cuts like a knife?
And can I hear those words I want to hear?
"I've loved you my daughter, for all these years."

For then I will know,
From all that you show,
I have been loved forever,
by someone who was once told....never.
