Dear Mother

by Gabrielle

Published December 7, 2006

My mother I love her
she is beautiful, even glowing
but her soul is pleading for release
her charades hurt
I must understand
she needs her space

My mother has a mental block
she can't see me,
can't hear me
oh my dear mother is aching

She has brought herself to think
she needs the "love" of a man
her depression is temporarily gone
as one man turned into many men

Now I carry the burden
four times I've died
still sexcapades go on

I must understand
this will save her life
so I am willing to give up mine

umm i am really sorry but this is quite a weird poem..... !!!



I went to confront noisy neighbours, only to find the windows dark, stuck with two notes. The ghost, too, had "gone fishing". Something still whistled.
