I thought that I had a mother Because she always said she loved me But not once did she have the actions To back up the words. She left me for someone, Who she'd never admit she loved more But she did And as soon as he was gone She wanted a daughter again But theres a difference between having a daughter And being a mother. I dont want to sit and wait for you to change any longer Partially because I'm tired of waiting But mostly because I am scared Scared that the drugs and alcohol arent what made you this way. Scared of what you really are. Scared of the mother I never had. *If the only place I can live my dreams is in my sleep, then I'll sleep forever!* |

this is a really powerful poem, i think it's the best that i've read by you. you did a really beautiful job on this, it is really well written. this one goes into my library and i look forward to reading lots more in the future. Sometimes, the things that go unsaid are the only things worth hearing. |

This poem is so deep and beautiful. I really liked it. "Cause I can't fix something this complex anymore than I can build a rose" |

Very sad poem. I'm sorry you went through this. *hugs*  I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |

*click, clack* Carly's right... those things are the best... *stares for hours* ahem... that is... Great job, Heavens Tears. This poem has an immense amount of power, although I found that the format was a bit lacking. Still I appreciate the fact that this was written to express and not impress, so I'll still commend you on a job well done. ~Allan Build a man a fire, and he's warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life. |

You truely showed your feeling in this poem, which makes it come alive. I'm sorry things are not so great between you an your mother, and I hope that putting it down on paper can help. |
