Even Though I Didn'T Know Poem by Joseph Morehead

My childhood came

And then it past

Fifteen years

I lived in the rain

If only i knew

Instead of being last



I still remember

That October day

The day that you found me

After all those years



A few weeks passed by

Not again did i cry

I never knew of you

But now i worry not



I was lied to

I was abused

But in the end

At least I know of you



You are my mom

My beginning of life

And im glad your here

In my life for good

Nothing will take you away

Not this time anyway



Now im eighteen

Three years have past

I have changed a lot

Since we met last



I think of you every day

I tell our story

And most find it bogus

But only we know the truth



We never had our bond

With life and troubles

Thought you weren't there for me

(and i know it wasn't by choice)

But now i share with you

Where i was never able before



We have our differences

And we have our alikes

But in the end

Were still together

As Mother and Son
