I don't wanna be a grown-up tonight. I don't want to know that my Mom is in the hospital and having a bad time of it. I don't want to be my Mom's Mom. I don't want to go to bed again and ask God to make her well, like I have done for the past 40 years. I pray for her, but that's all I can do. I want to call my Mom with my worries, and hear her say that it will be allright. I've never known what it's like to do that, and I never will. I have to be the strong one, and right now I don't want to be. I don't mean to sound selfish, but sometimes even the strong need love too. I miss my Mom.
