She

She yells at me but she cannot see

She burdens me with these words

yet she refuses to hear

To hear my side of the story

To see how i struggle everyday but i just don't get it

She can never do any of these things

open to interpretation...are we talking about mom here or about ourselves? either way this is a provocative and resonant write. well done!

[Clare the Artist]

anything you want. I use the term "she" metaphorically because it's all about interpretation of who you think it is.

[quinfinn]

well, it works!

I love this, you do know how to express your feelings quite well! I also can relate to this poem.

"yet she refuses to hear
To hear my side of the story" I feel that way with my mother whenever me and my little sister just got into a fight. She doesn't ever listen to my side. But if she does, she doesn't believe me! I don't know if that's what you were talking about in your poem but that's how I see it! :D
Outstanding job, please keep writing!
