Long Time Coming

Long Time Coming

A Poem by Amy Whetzell
"

self-explanatory

"

I can't let it go

I want to forget

Pretend it never came to be

I can't sleep

Eating makes me queasy

Happiness makes me sad

I am repressed

I am sick and delusional

Right?  Right?!

Tell me you never said it

Tell me what you always say

It's all in my head

It must be really

What kind of parent does this?

What kind of mother!?

Can the child within me rise above?

I can no longer suppress it

How can I overcome this blow to my head, my heart?

I want to be happy

Can you let me, help me?

Let me let go.

not as self explanitory as I would have liked.... I still find myself wondering what the story behind the feelings is, the feelings are fatastically portrayed but with no story set behind them the reader dosen't grasp them as well... Its a really wonderful beginning but to me dosent seem finished... What did the mother do/say to make the child feel this way.... Thats the biggest question to go through my mind... Its a wonderful write and has awesome potential I just don't feel it's finished.... =)
