    A MOTHERS LOVE

    My hands are small compared to yours.
    I can not open cabinets or even doors.
    I can not walk as fast as you.
    My legs are to little and my feet are to new.
    I look up to you to make me strong.
    I need you to love me and, teach me right from wrong.
    I know daddy left you, but I am still here.
    I share all of your pain and even your fear.
    Now you won't hold me or tell me you care.
    You only remind me I have his eyes and even his hair.
    Daddy left for a new family in a different state.
    There were no visits or phone calls to see your love turn into hate.
    Hate for daddy and the burden he left behind.
    A two year old girl and a note he couldn't even sign.
    I understand why you hate daddy I truly do.
    I only wonder what exactly was it that I did to you?
    Can't you see my tears, I am hurting too.
    You see he left me just as fast as he left you.
    He left me alone to face the anger of someone who doesn't care.
    A mother who slaps my face and pulls my hair.
    Every day I spend wishing from above, that just one day I could have a mothers love.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
