41. The Way It Was
The times we had,
the times we shared
were the best time
when everyone cared.

She is my mother,
that indomitable, unattainable goal.
A woman of iron and silk and unforgiving praise.
She is the measure of all that
Very familiar attitude from that daughter. I would be willing to bet everything I own that the mother sees herself in a totally different light.

A silly girl
Loved a stupid boy
He was her everything
She was just his toy
I also was a silly girl in love with a stupid boy that lead me to become a single teenage mother. I prayed everyday for 9 months for god to bless me with a baby boy. My mother walked out of...
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
Why can't you love me and accept me for who I am?
I always try my hardest; I do the best I can.
Can't you see how sad I've been?
The way you treated me must have been a sin.
Please don't shut me in
Don't hide me from the treasures buried
deep within the world,
Don't bring me down with destruction
Once protected, you felt so safe
Now everything you know means nothing;
I see the fear in your face
What are you to do
Your poems changed the way that my soon to be wife and I lived. I made copies and sent them to her. I want to thank your website for helping me.
I gave you a chance, let you in and tried to be your friend.
I should have known, you wouldn't be there in the end.
I wanted you to love me, I waited for so very long.
