Dear mom...


I was born from within you
And you've journeyed through life with me
I presented challenges galore
But you faced them all
And were ready for more
I have had this way 
of making the unkindest cut of all
I realize that you deserve so much more
A life filled with friends your age, 
Your childhood playmates at every stage
To remind you of joyous days
Someone appreciating the kindness you show
The sacrifices you've made to bring me up
Your concern for everyone that touches our life
Your artistic hands that weave wool
Your strong spirit that understands us
I love you ma! I'm sorry I hurt you today
You truly deserve the best, every day!

Tears for fears...

I sob and sob and sob. 'coz all your carefully constructed lies  have come crashing down Raining on me in torrents The tears flow down unchecked But it feels good to cry. What else have you given me other than tears To remember you by?

Glasses tinted blue

They always talk about rose-tinted glasses That place the blame squarely on 'you' What people underestimate Are the blue-tinted ones Placed by someone else on you That obscure your view of the world And make sadness true for you I tweeted this poem to @ RealisticPoetry  in response to a picture prompt.
