Mom, what's wrong?
How come we can't get along?
This isn't fair
You act like you don't even care

What is wrong with me,
Is there any good in me you see?
What have I done that is so bad?
You're never happy w/me always mad.

Just beccause I moved out
Doesn't mean you can sit there and pout
Are you even happy I'm being taken care of
And that I believe in the Lord above?

Yes, I know I've made some mistakes in the past
But those should have faded away fast
You know, this is really sad
Cause I can't have a good relationship w/ you
Or my dad

There is so much you are missing out on
Just make me understand, mom
You've never given me a compliment
Or ask me how my day went

Even though you've hurt me
And my grandparents, you don't care to see
Just know that God's watching over you
And that I love you too

I think you did a great job of getting your feelings out with this one, it's very good.  The end of this was great, showing that you love her even though she might not show it towards you.  That shows some major character.  Nicely done

Another 15 year old here!  

I also don't have a good relationship with my mother, so I can really relate to this piece. The only advice I can offer is to never give up. You only have one mother, good or bad, and you should try to get along with her... and you should always love her. Thanks for posting.

I really like ur poem, and am hoping to write one about the same sort of situation - don't want to give too much away! I understand how u feel and am also 15 and feel the same way sometimes but im sure your mum will come to her senses and realise how lucky she is to have u..
dont give up
luv vicki.xx

Hey chick~ Well honestly I cant relate to this, because my mom and i are so close and we always have been. She's my bestfriend   I tell her stuff i probably shouldnt because shes my mom, but i dont care, she trusts me and she gives good advice so it works for me. But i hope things work out

Well, I kinda go with Dopey on this one. I can't really relate. I've always had a decent relationship with my mom, occasional rough spots, but we're good. I'm not 15 anymore.... I kinda feel outa the loop on this whole thing, but this is good writing!
