When I fell down and learned to pick myself up,

Where were you?

When my teeth fell out and I cried in pain,

Where were you?

When I learned to play with others,

Where were you?

When I learned not to hit,

Where were you?

When I got a kitten,

Where were you?

When I was diagnosed with a mental condition,

Where were you?

When my grandmother and grandfather wanted to enjoy their retirement,

Where were you?

When I cried myself to sleep and wet the bed,

Where were you?

Am I such a burden that you shrug me off at first chance and don’t even worry about me? 

Do I not fit into your plans to philander? 

Why am I put second? 

Why did you have me if you did not want me? 

I am here waiting for you to come back.

Where are you?
