We came into this life together
You are my mother, I your baby
As I grew, so did you
Figuring out each new day, a new thing
I grew up and changed, not just my look
But who I became
You changed to, as the years went by
You watched as I grew, took my first step
Got rid of my baby teeth
Got taller, got older
Went off to school, elementary, highschool, now college..
Some many times I wish I were still small,
So that you could still be proud of the things I did
So many times I just wanted to make you happy again,
The long face doesn't suit you, the tears shouldn't fall
But I can't make you happy, because I am me
I don't wish you pain, or heartache
I wish you happiness and love, but I am me
We have seen that time and time again
I love you just the same, always have always will
Your blood runs through my veins, you are always near me
But you are so far away most times, its scary
I may not tell you everything, I may not come to your for advice,
For all I want most times from you, is just your motherly love..
I want you to be my friend, not my jailer, my Mom, not my enemy
Do you understand me? I know you never have..
Maybe you never will, just remember I am your flesh, your blood
Your daughter who loves you more than her own life
These words are true, not fantasy...
I care so much that sometimes I hurt you without thinking first
I am sorry for the pain, the tears, the sorrow, the fighting..
I love you...can you love ME?
Reason for writing:
I wrote it because this shows the relationship of me and my mother, how i yearn to just be loved for me.
