I wonder mom
Why you weep so much
Why blame yourself
For my failures
No one said that you
Did anything wrong
It was by choice
What I’ve become
You pray every hour
For my salvation
And yours
It’s so confusing
My only mistake
Was to fall in love
And not mind
If anyone’s hurting
If I’ve caused so much pain
I’ve repented mom
It’s enough
I stand by my actions
Stop blaming yourself
Stop blaming me
It’s not my fault
You’re in misery
You conditioned your mind
That you’re a mirror
Of everything
All of my being
No one assigned you to it
We were made with free will
So why punish yourself?
Why punish me?
I’m old enough
I can think for myself
What I do
I am responsible
Don’t make a big issue
Of how I run my life
Don’t make an issue
Of my beliefs
If you don’t see me praying
Don’t assume too much
It doesn’t mean
I don’t believe
I just have my own way
Of dealing with God
It’s our pact
It’s our mystery
I’m sorry if I can’t please you
I’m sorry if I’m not like you
Oh please understand
I am but human
So stop blaming yourself
Stop blaming me
I love you
But I have a life to live
