I used too,

Some one asked me today if I ever missed you,
And I simply said I used too.
But I don't any more, 
Yeah that was before. 
Back when I still believed I needed you,
Back when I use too.
They asked if I ever think about what went wrong, 
I said I had not in so long.
I asked what good would it do? 
So I don't bother, but I used to.
They asked if it bothers me that my kids no longer have a relationship with you,
But after all you put us through looking back I don't now, 
But I used to.
They asked me if my boys ever talk about you,
I said not very often, but they used to.
They asked me if they want to talk to you,  
And I laughed and said they say " do I have to"?
But a long time ago they used to.
They asked me if the boys ever wanted to go visit you,
I said no because they don't feel safe around you, 
But almost a year ago they used to.
Someone asked me if my boys want you in their lives, they have both said neither of them do,
But they used to.
They asked me if you will ever get over being mad, 
I said not if you don't have to,
No one can hold a grudge like you,
So I don't think about that any more but I  used to.
They asked me if I ever worry about you,
I said no you have always done anything you set your mind to,
So I don't worry about you, But I used to.
They asked me if I thought I could forgive you, 
But after all you put us through today I don't know if I can, or even if I want to,
But I used to.
They asked me if I ever worried that I would turn out to be a mother like you,
I said no because I am a better one than you,
So I don't, but I used to.
They asked me if I wanted to mend my broken relationship with you,
Today I don't, 
But I used to.
They asked me if I thought you loved me , I doubt  today you do,
But it makes me feel better to believe at one time,
You used to.
