I've cried, I've screemed, I've bit, I've clawed
I've tried to take away all falls, heal the hurts
Take away all pains and be the one that bled

I've tried, I've cared, I've been, I've fled
I've seen, I've taught, I've preached, I've led
Take my heart, the feelings end, just turn to stone

Your hurts have been many, this a very tough year
Pain from all directions, big, medium and small
I thought I had prepared you for what was to come

Remember my words for the days yet to be
When you start to feel happy after the pain
It can be just as you hoped, but, snap of fingers,
gone

Be ready to feel love that is ready to be given
As the days and time flow past, pray it remains
It can change in the blink of an eye, forever gone


The words are just perfect all you dreamed to hear
Your feelings laid bare and soothing voice just
right
Pick up the pieces of miseries gone by in the other
life

A friend becomes more, the past begins to fade
Your unprotected heart has been pierced with hope
You forget how quickly the world becomes black

Now you have cried and you have screemed
And tried to lose the pain to face the future
To live each day, forget the past, mend the bleeding
heart
Thank you JM for your kind words and help.

ME,

It sounds like she deserves some peace and calm after the storm. Sending her my love . . . always. Sad, yet hopeful. Nice writing.

ME ...
your very welcome....but I didnt do anything...
this was all from your pen to tell someone you care for and worry about how you feel.
that is one of the gifts of poetry...
it gives us a voice for the things we sometimes cant say in person...
your mothers intentions shine thru in your words....
well done MB

As sure as God made wine
you can't wrap your arms around a memory
In the dark for me
youre the candle flame that flickers to life

Nate,thank you so much. I will try again if I can remember where this one came from.

Lone Wolf, I keep hoping everything will surprise me and get all better. Not sure I could live with that either!

What a wonderful expression of caring... each verse says you're there for them, no matter what. *S*

A Mother's love,
shall be "forever"
in the hearts of the young.
And pain recedes, when
the knowledge is there
that she will "always"
be the strong arm
to hold you up and
the shoulder to lean upon
and the voice of reasoning
when the "forever" of dreams
disappoints...

Lovely words,ME
