Lost Mother

My best friend is lost
Put away for doing wrong
She shouldn't have done that
Got herself in trouble
Drugs lead her the wrong way
I told her what they would do-
Drugs are no good
Did she listen?
And now shes in jail
No where to be seen
She wanted me to come visit her
She wanted me to write
She wanted me to talk on the phone
But it was too late
She lost my confidence in her
That only a mother could have
I looked up to her for all my life
And now all my faith in her is lost
She lost the most important thing
That she could ever have
Her childs faith in her
How could she do that?
I wish I had the answers...
Shes back at home now
But still hasn't gained her childs faith
She said she had time to think
That now she knows whats important
Its not drugs,
Or her friends,
Or money,
Instead its her child
Her child is now her number one priority
Or so she says
Do I believe that?
After all the lies
After all the lost faith
Do I believe it?
My best friend is lost...

This is a horrible situation!
I hope all gets better soon........
the expression, however, is great. You expressed your pain well. Good job!



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

I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them!

You've expressed yourself well in this piece QTpieOmy (love your pen name by the way). It sounds like your fiend is in a terribly difficult situation. I truly hope that the person has learned their lesson and will make an attempt at a life change. Best wishes and prayers that all will be well ...

Best wishes,
/Kit

I know exactly what you're going through.  My mom got into drugs and alcohol.  Not a good mixture.  She never went to jail because she never got caught.  She was acting really weird and she never took care of me or my sisters...well i moved out because i was the oldest and i had a choice of where i wanted to live.  I think she is doing better now that I've left.  Just keep praying that things will turn out ok, that's what I did...and I still am.  It's hard because you think of a mother being your best friend and everything else.  I still love her and I'm sure you love your mom too.  Things will get better soon...and I'll pray for you.

Your poem is really good, but this sounds like it's tough.  I hope things get better soon.
