MOM
This is to you

Here is your angel standing before you,
Halo held high and proud.
But no mater how she tries,
Her halo falls and covers her eyes.
She's blind and her path is rough,
She needs guidance to get through this stuff.
Her halo askew,
"Mom where are you?"
She can't get her halo right,
Tears stream down her face fill with the fears she fights.
"Don't disappoint me, follow my lead. Says a whisper on the air"
"Come back! Where are you? Why don't you care?"
The teary-eyed angel with a halo on wrong
"Were do I go, do I belong?"
A lost angel with a secret she hides
That she can't be perfect no matter how she tries.

    I have a 13 year old son who has a problem with his halo. Yes I love him Yes I care for him but sometimes he thinks hes the only one in the equasion. He expects me to understand him but does nothing to try to undestand me. I know we`ll meet in the middle one day but its frustrating. Try to see your mums side too. x

    don't worry, nobody is perfect, and if they seem to be, it's all fake. i have issues with it too, but my mom is coming around. i hope this helped you calm down and it gets better for you. this is a great poem.
