Question: A very personal poem for Memorial Day!. Painful to write, do you like it!.!?
"mother"
I'm burning up now,
a hell of my making!.
I'm searching for you
old and I'm shaking!.
Your love hangs over,
like dark misery!.
Mother I beg you,
please set me free!.
Just like the snake,
that tempted of old!.
You left me seduced,
stuck out in the cold!.
You lied to me often,
I felt only pain!.
Sometimes I'm Abel,
others I'm Cain!.
Woman of sorrow,
you lead me on!.
In this strange world,
I do not belong!.
Slipped out of your womb,
left here on this earth!.
Mother of pain,
why did you give birth!.
My giver of life,
please let me go!.
Surely you know me,
what you have sown!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The old memories of mom bothering you today!? Caught between knowing you should love her, but hate her for what she put you through!. Wishing she would have at least apologized before her death and took your side, but knowing it will never happen!. I can see how painful it can be!. Sorry for your pain which flows with the words!. It is good to get them out!. Thanks for sharing!.
