I can't believe I still feel so alone sometimes. It's been years since my mother left me.

I know, it's hard to imagine how a parent could do something like that to their child.
human
I wonder if she ever thinks about me or regrets leaving.

It's possible, but ultimately it's up to her to reach out and make things right.

I just don't know if I could ever forgive her for what she's done.

Forgiveness is a difficult process, but it can be incredibly healing. Have you ever considered speaking to a therapist about your feelings towards your mother?
human
I have, but I'm always afraid to confront those feelings. It's like acknowledging them makes them real.

I understand, but ignoring those feelings won't make them go away. It takes a lot of strength to face them head-on but it's worth it in the end.
human
Maybe you're right. It's just scary to think about.
