Pain...From A Parents Heart

all the feelings arising in a parent's heart

Parents, you know,
are the first, and the best angels,
we get in our life......

They do everything for us,
but in turn,want nothing,
except the love and care,
they always have been giving..

So, here are the thoughts,
which i today,
want to share with you all,
on our parent's hearts behalf....

They give us birth,
but never say, that
its because of them, that
we are on this earth..!

They give us life,
but never say, that
its because of them,that
we are alive...!

Our mother feeds us,
with the first milk,
which you already know,
is so essential, for
the child's good health,
but she never says,that
its because of it,
that you aren't ill...!

They firmly hold our fingers,
and teach us to walk,
but they never say, that
its because of them, that
we today, can properly walk..!

They are our first teachers,
but they never say,  that
without their assistance,
we would be big losers....!

They teach us, how
to earn our living,
but never say, that
without their help, we
could be nothing...!

They are always with us,
like a protective shield,
preventing us from the harshness,
this world yields...
but never say, that
without their protection,
we could be completely lonely....!

When you get hurt,
they feel the pain,
more than you,
but still encourage you, that
it will soon be rescued,
without even saying, that
they feel it more than you....!

They do so much for you,
more than what, they can
actually do,
because, my friends,
they really love you.....!

But sadly, at some phases,
we do such things,
that we actually,
shouldn't do...

They care for you, love you ,
and this is why, they are
concerned for you....
But this at times,
becomes, a source of  irritation,
and disgust,
for the children,
who are so called...
'Grown up', till then....!

The love, care, and concern,
that they once gave, and
hoped for,
goes in vain.....
the gown up child,
now called, 'A man'..
sees them as a big burden....
and feels, that
life could be much better,
without their existence.....!

So, friends, let me remind you,
at this instance, that,
you too were, at some
phase of life....
Children...!
completely helpless, crying deeply and bitterly,
for the love, warmth, and concern...
which was later, only
given to you,
by your parents.....!

so why, in their old age,
when they have turned
emotionally and mentally into children,
you can't understand them..?
can't love them..?
and deprive them, of
that love and concern, which
should actually be given to them...?

and most essentially,
what is it, which makes you hate
them then.....?
is it their Love, Care, Warmth and Concern.....!!

But still, they don't won't hate you,
my dear friends,
because, you never know, but
they were, and always be your best friends,
who are with you from the beginning,
till the end...!

So, my dear readers and friend,
i humbly urge you,
please, please, please,
never ever hurt,
these lovely angels again...
and if you already have,
please ask them,
to forgive you then....
and you will be pardoned....!

and if you don't,
forget it, that you will
afford heaven.....!

for God never forgives the people,
who hate their parents....!

I think about on the bad I've done for my parents and still undeniably and indubitably I still end up doing it out of their spite. It's one to know when to stop and stare and be just a good son but I find myself having a hard time to accept it. Sad but a truly lovely piece for sure. :)

I really enjoyed the read I have written 3 or 4 about the same subject
a lot of people just take it for granted but you are so right

[Karen]

This is a nice homage to parents and there is clearly an appreciation for them. Unfortunately, not only are there not many grateful children who appreciate their parents like they should, but there are bad parents that don't deserve even these lines. I hope I am a good daughter AND a good mom.

well i would simply say....
its really touching!

A nyc write with a subtle rhythm and a concrete message. We do love our parents but for some people these relationships are so toxic snd tasteless, it could not be given such a divine status. A very nyc poem.

Very lovely rhythm, and very good points.

Children have many differing thoughts about their parents. You have portrayed one sort of thoughts very well in your long poem. Selfless love can sometimes be good, sometimes be harmful, but luckily most children develop a good dollop of common sense. It is surprising how love can be reflected and received in many different ways! And children who don't have parents present, usually have 'parent figures'

[Dayran]

A parent who fosters selflessness rather than their role, responsibility ... and a sense of how they do what they do ... teaches a child nothing ... they are bringing up a child to worship them. Its not parenthood. The poem digs deep for the esoteric to see the father and mother ... obviously that's the only way the poet knows love. A hideous poem that should not see the light of day.

[sivan]

sweet and honest. i think there is more depth to be found though because you need not mention the people that birthed you... some people adopt and their love grows the children... its about who was there for your entire journey that shapes the person you become not merely who created you... a study was done on kids adopted by gay parents and a common denominator found was that the kids didnt care that their parents were both male or female they were just happy to be loved so i think love transcends any barriers and that is the truth!
