A chilD's MotheR

A child exists

She doesn't know if she is
or not

She doesn't know if
she has a mother
of her own

She's numb, hopeless,
wonderring in the earth

But doesn't
find any answer

Her mother isn't like
yours

Her mother hates
'her'

'her' : apperance
voice
hobby
skills
actions
happiness

ALL

Her mother always says : 'you need to smile'

but how, if you're hurting me?

'u need to greet people nice'

but how, if my practices

are all wrong to you

'even if you're smart, you're still
ugly'

but how, if you're the one

who's making me ugly?

' u need to stop staring at
people with you're devil-looking- eyes'

but how, if that's what i look?

She screams everytime, trying to find
the answer she's looking for.


But for now her answer is ;














"I don't have a mother"







by "mE"

    Sorry about the first view had to go to school sadly.

    Anyways you made me hurt. This is such a deep, personal, thoughtful poem.

    Some things:
    -I think you should use real spelling instead of "u" and "ur" to make the poem more poetic.

    -"A child exist" should be:
    "A child exists"

    But good poem!!

    Hope.

    Oh my

    Your emotions made my heart hurt, as a mother myself... this made me want to look at you and remind you that you are a beautiful, whole, perfect person who is destined to be greater than your mother. There are no boundaries for you, my child, and anyone who tells you otherwise is a lair.

    When she tells you that you are not good enough, don't believe her.

    LOVE TO YOU
