I never had a real mom

I never had a real mom, but
I’ve had a mom that’s real
In all the things that moms should do,
And all the things moms feel.
I never had a mother, but
I’ve had a mother’s love.
I’ve had the kisses and the hugs
That therapists speak of.

I guess I should be crazy with
The things that I’ve been through.
But I’ve had all a kid could need
Because I have had you
