Too late

I never noticed until it was too late,
I never saw the signs,
Never heard your warnings,
Never thought twice about your behavior,
Not about how you flinched when I hugged you,
Not about how we never went to your house,

Not about how your dad was never mentioned,

Or about your dead mother,

And now she's with you,
And you're watching from above,
Looking down on me,
As I ask myself how I was too late,

Too late.
