The family I have in reality won't pay attention to me,
Ignore, abuse, and deprive, is everything that I see.
Sometimes I wake to tears, aching for a shoulder to lean
But then tears pour harder when it's nowhere to be seen.
I spend hours on the internet as it's become my home
Because my broken home has me depressed and all alone
I just want a mother, to have to tell everything there is
So I don't have to hold it tight until it burns me within.
I have a loving boyfriend mike I live for every day
I know if I had a mommy, I'd love her all the way.
Author notes
Just a little something. It's not perfect. but I really would like a mom...someone to understand. I mean Mike understands a lot about me...but I don't think he can relate about many things, ya know? Please help me out. hope you enjoy!

an honest, direct and simply written piece. The suffering and longing is conveyed here.
As a woman, we are all mothers. We have the capacity to nurture and love without judgement..unconditional. May you find the mother within yourself, through the writings of others..through the world..(there are so many mother-angels out there!) sigh, blessings, love and peace to you!
