The letter I'll never send
Would help your heart to mend
It would sweetly say
That everything's going to be okay
And that when you yell at me
It's not who you want to be
The letter I'll never send
Would tell you that this relationship
With you is going to bend
You don't realize what you do
Break my heart in two
The letter I'll never send
Would explain why you couldn't
Be my friend
You don't like the way I act
But yet I just keep coming back
This letter I'll never send
Would tell you why I love my boyfriend
He means everything to me
And that's somthing you can't see
If I'm ever scared and sad
You don't care, you'll just get mad
This letter I'll never send
Would explain what
We could've been
Best friends-that's a laugh
Mother pluse daughter, do the math...

This was great. I really liked this one. WONDERFUL JOB ON IT!



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

lilpoet, I need to ask you a question to understand the poem a little better.  Is the poem about your mom being your supposed best friend?

I'd appreciate a response...thanks

This poem is about trying to get along with my mother, and things that cause me not to be able to get along with her.
When I said that "we were soposed to be bestfriends" I didn't mean that we had to..it was just an expression.

Wow- all I got to say is wow.  I know exactly how you feel, this poem hits really close to home with me.  Its beautiful.  Something exactly what I need to say to my mother, but dont have the guts to.  We never talk.  I ignore her.  But this poem is really effective and captivating.

The pain from a parent
oh so hurtful
but a lesson indeed
the love she fails to give
or the love you fail to show
is something that exists
she may not show it
and you may not either
but you do have potential
to have a beautiful relationship
your mom is a significant
part of your life
don't spend time worrying about
the things that she does or doesn't do
to make you mad
but the things you love about her
I wish I had the opportunity
to do the same...but my dad has left
and I am only left with
my wishes to go back and change
the relationship we had
and how quickly it fell.
Just some thoughts to think about
Best wishes
