Conversation With Mother

Conversation With Mother

A Poem by Tahj
"

I couldn't wait any longer, I had to tell my mother about my new girlfriend.

"
I couldn't wait any longer to let my mother know of the new lady who had entered my life
I was anxious; A bit of happiness coated with thick layers of nervousness. 
My subconscious kicked in, No need for nervousness it's just a little turbulence. 

I took one last breath before approaching the woman who I would die to impress
Mother I've found myself a sweet honey, she loves me for my poems 
instead of my non existent money. 

She replied with 
That's great son, I really hope she's the one. Don't go around breaking hearts,
that s**t is no fun. Treat her with respect, protect her from the sun. 
Let her know how beautiful she is, treat her like an Angel; She seems like such a familiar Stranger,
Love is comfort but it doesn't mean you're immune to danger. I've been hurt before Son,
To pain I am no stranger.

She had said more than I expected, but I needed to hear it because I had always been unprotected.
I wanted mother to be happy for me, and in all honesty no discomfort was detected
By me, her opinion was always respected, this was short lived but I had to end this conversation
Because I realized that I had left the love of my life alone and neglected.
