So-Called Mother

From her womb you will descend,
From her life you will depend.

Your trust will lie within her hold,
As you only know what is told.

But as you live you learn the truth,
She can not hold you,
You cannot depend.
For within this life she has only one friend.

From this life you will learn to live,
From this life you will learn to give.

You will never love with all your heart,
She took that away from the very start.
You will move forward until the end,
For you are a lost child with no mother to depend
