Conner's Song

by Bek Williams

I'm alone
And I'm sleepless tonight
If she cared
She would call and make things right

Dad was never there
We didn't need him
But the pain she could not bear

Mom ran away from home
Left me, but took the cellular phone
It's been fourteen years
She never called to make things right with me

Hey mom, where are you?
Hey dad, I could use a hand
Hey mom, still on prozac?
Hey dad, are you fighting man like me?

For fourteen years
I've been living with Grandma
Now that I'm here
I don't want to carry on

Mom ran away from home
Left me but took the cellular phone
It's been fourteen years
She never called to make things right with me

Hey mom, where are you?
Hey dad, I could use a hand
Hey mom, still on prozac?
Hey dad, are you a fighting man like me?

I thought you would come back
Eventually, I gave up hope of
Ever being normal, like a
normal family could be
Cos

Mom ran away from home
Left me but took the cellular phone
It's been fourteen years
She never called to make things right with me

Hey mom, where are you?
Hey dad, I could use a hand
Hey mom, still on prozac?
Hey dad, are you a fighting man like me?

Author's Note: This is for my friend Conner, his mom actually did run away from home when he was one, and she never came back, and lately he's been really down about it...
