A Mother Leaving Her Son

I tend to just write how I feel, and hope that it makes sense and has an impact on someone.

The Shadow You Cast

Published by Family Friend Poems May 6, 2022 with permission of the Author.

Dear mother of mine
Was I ever worth your time?
My fragile heart yearns for your unconditional love
A feeling that I'm deprived of
I was foolish to believe your white lies
No longer am I a little boy
With wool over his eyes
To your pain I'm already numb
The sad thing is
The heartache is never done
They say time heals everything
But I don't believe that's true
Because it never brought back you
Never will I forget the past
But I will step out from the shadow you cast
