I WISH YOU LOVED ME MOM

Now I see those lucky girls

Whose mothers are always around

But you are never there for me

Like you are already under the ground

You give me money

You give me all I need

You call me honey

But you are still not the person you were supposed to be

All the stuff you do for me

Makes me cry

You say that its the best for me

You make me wish to die

You want me to be like you

Do you want me to be fake?

You never see the pain in my eyes

Cause you are too busy pointing out my mistakes

I wish you can be like dad

Who is always there for me

He loves me for who I am

Not busy trying to change me

You never fulfill the promises

That you love to make

You never give love

Just like to take

You are no longer a stranger to me

Cause you have neglected me for such a long time

You leave me in tears

Like every thing is okay and fine

Your hate made  me questioned you

Are you really the person who gave me birth??

Cause you are the reason of my broken dreams

You are the reason of my pain and hurt

Your words mentally beats me down

You call me weak

You are too busy telling me what to do

You don't even let me speak

I wish I can stop loving you

Just like you have stopped loving me

Our relationship is never like it should be

I wish that you loved me

Sad story. Very moving. Reminds me of the anger I held against my mother. That was until I became a parent myself. Then I realised how damn hard it is to be a parent. Let alone managing to be a good one. So I chose forgiveness. Especially because I learned shed been dealt a bad hand from her parents before.

I feel this poem so much but even more so that my mother was never around and when I did finally meet her she was horrid. Parents play important roles in our lives and when that role is not fulfilled it scars us for life. But, it can make us better than we would have been.

Most of us learn from bad lessons. My father and mother were AWOL. I became a good parent and tried my best to be there for my children. I like the story in the poem. Sometime love must be given. Each of us need more or less. A strong ending to a excellent poem.

its really tough going through this, your mother is just blind of your suffering. the reality is that not all mothers are the same caring and loving, so just be strong and you will get through it sometime in the near future where your mother will realized everything she have done. good job on the poem.

[Uroš D. Stojanov..]

I was amazed how you wrote this, but I was feeling sad the whole time I was reading this. I like this very much, I just wished it wasn't this sad....

"Are you really the person who gave me birth??" this line is a tad bit awkward but the rest is phenomenal! So many people, including myself, will relate to this. Fantastic job!

[Pax]

i agree with this one, maybe we can rephrase it like : "Are you really the person who gave birth to me??"

[That_Girl]

That or "Are you really the person who gave me life??" would work as well. :)
