Mother's Poem To Her Daughter (who isn't speaking to her monther)

Mother Daughter Poem

I remember the good times,
that we once had...
but still my life,
is oh...so sad

I try to look forward,
but my mind goes back...
because a piece of the glass,
on our portrait is cracked

I try so hard to protect the glass,
I won't let it shatter...
Because you and your love,
are all that matters

My family is all,
that means anything to me...
still...everything always
gets blamed on me

This happens to Moms,
all over the world...
we're supposed to be perfect,
we learn this as girls

I have never been great
or the "best of Moms"...
And, at times I've failed
by some things I've done wrong

For those things I am sorry,
I didn't want you angry...
but please remember,
my eyes are not dry

I hope you can find,
our love that seems lost...
for by my caring and trying to help too much,
came at a very high cost

A piece of my life,
is missing and gone...
And everything feels,
Oh...so wrong

But, there is one thing,
that I can do...
I will be strong,
just for you

One thing I feel,
down deep in my soul...
It's my love for you,
Despite my heart’s big hole

Even though a call or a text, either one you won’t do
I still and will always want the very best for Steve, Stevie and especially you.

I love you, Mess.

Mama
