Painful Parting

My heart is broken for the words that are left
unspoken.

My cries go unheard, because dear Mother you always have to have the very last word.

I try to explain how much I miss you, yet when ever I do, all I get is your dismissal.

How can you say this is whats best, when the weight of the world is settled on my chest.

Not having you near me is surely going to kill me.

Your my mother my friend, yet to your will
I refuse to bend.

I lived to long in this hell of a house
I am tired of playing the quiet little mouse.

Say what you will and do what you please,
but this daughter of yours is taking her release.

I will not lay down and slink away, I will stand my ground and be proud today.

I will never give up, nor will I give in,
My daughters will not know Their mothers greatest sins.

My life is changing day by day.
I can only hope I can do better then you someday..

Mother knows best. Parenting is really a special, but so difficult a task. Most parents would only wish everything that is good for their children. Yet, they are not right all the way. I love your continued respect for your parent and your fight for your individuality. I enjoyed reading this piece of work. Cheers!

very good work dear . Very heart felt .... I almost teared up . A bit rhymy but in your style of poetry that suits well . Good Job dear .

Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
