             Mom why do you make me cry

        Mom why do make me cry, you know how much I love you. When you make me cry sometimes I just want to die. Your killing me inside you treat me like I am a stepchild but yet you say you love me, but how can you. You treat me like I'm always doing something wrong yet you say you love me but then why do you always make me cry? You always say I love you but then why do you make me feel like I'm nothing? So how can you love me because if you did you wouldn't make me cry!

It isn't all that sucky really. It needs to be polished a little and I can help you with that if you wish. I'll give you an example of what I mean.

EG:

Mom why do make me cry?

You know how much I love you.
When you make me cry,
Sometimes I just want to die.
Your killing me inside,
You treat me like I am a stepchild,
But yet.....
you say you love me...
How can you?
You treat me like I'm always......
Doing something wrong!
Yet you say you love me?
But then why do you always make me cry?


You always say I love you but.......
You make me feel like I'm nothing.
So how can you love me?
When you make me cry.


Do you see what I mean? I made a few minor changes but mostly kept your orginal work but spaced it differently.

Welcome to Passions!!  



When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shodows deep;

How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face...

William Butler Yeats

welcome to passions!! this wasn't sucky at all, but i agree did need the spacing to create a beautiful poem. very nicely writ with much emotion poured into it! hope to see more of your work here, you'll see that with time, it'll all come together!!
