Love?

How am I to learn to love
When no one's taught me?
You all walked away when I needed you the most
Without looking back, feeling remorse

The dad who walked out of my life without a word
Never calling, writing, giving me a clue
Of his name, his life, himself

The mother who gave me up
And has yet to tell me the truth about my childhood
Why she let me go

The brothers who refuse to love me
After the lies and deceit
Blaming me for mistakes not my own

The sister who alienates me
Loves only conditionally
When it suits her

And the friend who's my friend
When I'm with my ex-boyfriend
When we're "happily in love"

Whatever love means
Whatever happiness is
Whatever friendship is
Whatever you are
Whatever I am.
