Just who we are

No one is perfect, no one can be
Can you throw stones whilst looking at me
Looking at others, do they show true
Make you feel better? making me blue
Never enough, way too much shame
Is it all me? Am i really to blame
Others are better, families too
How sad for all, i gave birth to you
What a sad shame you could have picked out
Your very own family, without a doubt
Maybe were greater, for better, for worse
Having been dumped with me, what a curse
All i have done through my lifetime for you
Of course im not good enough, isnt that true
Near in the future, youll tend to look back
At all the tactfullness we surely lacked
Seeing the pain we put on to others
Seeing how much we slap down our mothers
Others are always, held up in high guard
Was it you playing in their big back yard?
Who was it healing your hearts and your pains
Who was it listening to all your complains
Who went without so you had enough
Who was still caring when feeling unloved
Was it all others much greater than me
Will i be dead before you will see
Who held you up when herself felt so low
Who went without so you could then go
Maybe the time has come just to show
Where will be those who you feel are the go
Since they are normal and what you thinks right
Be them to contact from morning, till night
Sad that is seen that others are more
To the point that you now, can walk to their door
