mommy never hugs me <br />never reads me a book <br />she doesn't even know <br />but she's dating a crook. <br /> <br />he hurts her bad <br />how could she not know? <br />wants me to call him dad <br />even tho it aint so. <br /> <br />my real daddy loved me <br />hugged me everyday <br />he would never hurt my mommy <br />in any sort of way. <br /> <br />mommy forgot me <br />all she sees is him <br />i wanna leave so badly <br />i pray for a wind <br />to blow me away <br />take me far <br />to a new home <br />so i can get a new start <br />a brother, sister, dad and puppy <br />but only in my dreams could it be so lovely.<br /><br />Laura Strom<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mommy-forgot/
