Dear You...

I sit here watching my boy...
Our boy...
He has had a big day my boy,
Now my boy is fast asleep,
My boy, just here on my lap,
He's a beautiful site for me to see,
He screamed for hours on end,
I didn't know what to do...
I am still learning,
We - him and I are still learning
Learning about each other...
But now all is fine once again.
I know that he is the most important
Thing in my life now and forever.
These moments I will never forget,
Just sitting here looking at him,
Watching him sleep soo peacefully
Knowing that he will wake in the morning
And smile, laugh, cry and build me memories
That I will hold a cherish forever
Like the day he came into my life!
My only regret is that his you aren't here
To share with me these memories,
To share with me his beauty,
To know that this life is here
And we created this here with love.
Maybe it isn't love now,
But once long ago it was,
There may be hurtful words
And long ago good-byes
That I would never wish to change,
But still I wish you were here,
This is part of you too
Although you may not admit it
This life here in my arms...
Is me and he is also you
And no matter how much I despise you
I wish you could accept this child
Into your life and not just ignore
The mistakes we both made.
We have to accept our mistakes now,
We can't take them back,
We now have to look after them
And love them like
We once loved each other...


Guys I am not sure what is going on in my head at the moment...  everything is changing and nothing seems right anymore and none of my friends seem to understand completely what is going on, but I guess that's cause I don't either...  Michael came and saw me the other day and I just don't know...  I don't know what to do...

This is a really tough situation, but no matter what happens with the father, you should take pride that you are a good mother. I hope everything works out for you!

You're doing an awesome job... I can tell how much you love your son... Don't quit doing whatever you're doing, cause whatever you're doing, you're doing it right.

Well this was a nice read. It's good to know you kept the child and wil provide it with a loving and caring environment. Keep THAT up......it's best for everybody.



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Wow... you know, I bet motherhood is tough. I'm sorry that the boy's father is acting his shoe size... sometimes people just can't come to terms with their responsibilities. I'm sure you're a great mom, good luck with the rest of it!

Your poem was expressed well, but I don't know what you should do either.  Geee, I'm such a great help around here, ha.  But like they said, you're doing great as a mother, and defintely keep that up

I hope everything gets figured out for you. It can be hard when your mind is so confusing and it feels like no one, not even your friends understand. I hope that you start feeling better soon. Good poem
