Oh Mother,
Mother, Mother Dear
How do you sleep at night?
Living with your blinders on
Closing your eyes to my song?
Deafening your eyes
Not to feel the rhythm of pain
march my face..
Mother, Mother
Mo-ther
Oh Mother of mine!
Where has your affinity for warmth gone
And the fragrance of your cuddle, calm?
Mother, Mother, Mother
Oh Mother,
Of mine?
I am not yours
Not your puppet toy no more
Mother, Mother, Mother
Oh Mother dear,
Oh mine,
You know you can still love me
Even though I'm not yours to belong..
Mother, Mother, Mother,
Mother dear Oh mine,
Mother, Mother, Mother,
Oh Mother dear of mine.
Author notes
"fathom me" (Kunjal S.)
Relax this is not for my sweet ol' mum.. the word "mother" is symbolic of warmth and unconditional love and is used here to convey the feeling's intensity .. And its to be read in a sweet way, not angry.. Try :-)
Please tell me what you think

true
i think this one is special to you. How do you sleep is a winner , i recommend you listen to a song which is called How do you sleep by the genius John Lennon , in case you don't have it let me know i will email it to you.
Again this one's an eye opener as far as unconditional goes. I like the contradiction towards the end . a very nice effort. -

Ms Me, you're such a clever person with a mind that searchs for and finds beauty in every corner. --- It's interesting watching you develop, through your poetry. I'm starting to see signs of your love extending to including yourself, a really good thing. --- Thank you (twice)

I was very hesitant to put this on Allpoetry.. but then I was giving people less credit by thinking not to put it here. Thank you dear wattle for seeing something that can be easily overlooked (even I didn't realize..)
Sending love and good wishes your way~~
