21. I Don't Want Any Other
Our life has not been easy.
We've managed to drift apart.
But whatever it's worth,
Our life has not been easy.
We've managed to drift apart.
But whatever it's worth,
I have faced the same problems, and at times losing hope and waking up to a wet pillow full of tears. I love this poem because it gives me hope for another relationship with my mother. Thank you.

In a world so cruel and unkind
A child is born with a heart full of gold
And a soul that can never be defined

In just a few days,
You'll start a new life
As a brand new bride
...As someone's wife
I can never explain the ways I've felt
Growing up without you, playing the cards I was dealt.
There were always many things I wanted to say
My dreams and new thoughts that came each day
I have a daughter that does this to me. I'll be 50 on the 13th and I'm tired and empty. I love my daughter.
I'm so sad deeply, beyond depressed.
You are all grown up as anyone can see.
A beautiful lady standing in front of me.
Spreading your wings and leaving the nest,
to see what's out there for you at best.
They never knew the hurt inside,
I always tried to smile with pride,
They don't know how I really feel,
I never try to talk and heal,
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.
I came to this world nothing.
I thank you, Mama, for taking care of me.
I am so weak and can't stand alone.
Thank you, Mama, for helping me stand on my own.
I received a gift on that faithful day
Of which I know I could never repay,
Just as God came down to say
He just gave one of his Angels away.
I am too a pampered daughter and I loved reading your poem, it touched my heart. Thanks for sharing
When I'm down and feeling blue
And the world is over me
I feel so helpless and down
So worried and unbound
A tidal wave of emotions,
have sent my soul out to sea.
Crashing currents submersing,
what once was you and me.
Dear Tersia, your story has touched me deeply. I am so very sorry for the loss of your beautiful daughter. I couldn't even begin to imagine the grief and sadness you must be feeling. I have 3...
I feel so much hurt
I feel so much pain
I feel like I don't have anyone
I feel like I want to cry but can't
I felt every single word of this poem me and my birth Mum are not close it's a bit hard for me knowing that your birth Mum wants nothing to do with you or she doesn't love you at all. The...
My Mother gave me my talents and traits.
My Mam taught me to embrace them.
My Mother gave me my fears and doubts.
This story touched my heart deeply. As an adoptee, I relate to this greatly. Thank you so much.
You have always been there for me,
Teaching me about life's ways
Around you
There is never a dull day.
That poem reminded me of my mommy and I. My mommy was diagnosed with diabetes type one, and also M.S. and even though I know she tries her hardest and fails, I still love her, but sometimes I...
I'm thankful for my mother
for always standing by my side.
For letting me cry on her shoulder,
and for being my greatest guide.
You've been there since I was young,
You've healed my cuts and pains.
You guided me through my sorrows
And helped celebrate my gains.
The night is still young
The sun has gone low
The first thing I see
I was asked to write a poem
About Mother's Day
But when I sat down to write
I had nothing to say
Beautiful, heart-felt, and extremely touching. I feel you, Roxanna. Bless you for keeping it real. I can relate. Keep writing!
As I sit and blow this bubble,
I fondly think of you.
Of all the things you taught me
I was on here looking for a Mother's Day poem that I could make into art for my mom. There are a lot of lovely pieces on here, but this one... this one made me cry. It's perfect because it...
You stayed with me through thick and thin,
even when I started to turn dark within.
You always bring me back to reality,
Saying the world doesn't revolve around flattery.
