Dear mom
Dear mom,
I know you love me
but those precious feelings of love are lost in a sea
A sea full of light and darkness
those eyes that show me the hardness
followed with words that carry so much sharpness
your words bleed ‘till deep into my skin
the tears of pain rolling down my chin
my love for you feeling like a sin
and the pain of never knowing if we’ll ever win
win this fight of silent hate
our words carrying so much weight
it secretly makes me feel so afraid
can I please just know the end date?
the end date to my depression
and your verbal aggression
because I’m really trying to fill the hole
repairing the broken pieces in my soul
but it’s out of my control
I truly want to let you back in
but just thinking about it makes my head spin
it makes me anxious thinking of removing the safety pin
I want to be in your arms so badly
but I know I can’t, sadly
because my heart has been too bruised
my trust too many times misused
and my soul painfully abused
But I have hope we’ll find each other back
our love finding its way through the wrack
eventually overcoming the attack
and I believe we’ll walk on the same path again once we’re both healed
once we can both leave the battlefield
until then I’ll love you unconditionally from the dark
even tho my heart screams for you through that same sea mark
About this poem
My best friend has been everything to me. We’re always there for each other trough the good an the bad. Sadly we both went to a lot of the bad. I’m grateful we always went trough it together. I wrote this poem for her because she wasn’t feeling mentally ok and I wanted to know her how much she means to me. That i love her unconditionally and that we’ll overcome the bad days like we always have. Together.
