Mamma



These voices don’t sound very nice, Mamma
They’re whispering things in my ear.
Pretty things, horrible things, scary things,
They whisper things that make me shiver in fear.

These voices are scaring me, Mamma,
Please make them leave,
They paint pictures in my mind
Of all the lies they like to weave.

Don’t leave me, Mamma
I promise I’ll be better.
They said you weren’t coming back,
I’ll follow your rules to the letter.

You’re my hero, Mamma.
You used to be so kind.
Why won’t you stay, Mamma?
Even though you’re just a voice in my mind.

Author notes

First poem I've written in a long while. Sort of strange but hey, thats what I ended up with.
It's not the best either. I got a little bit stuck in places.

Please tell me what you think

    This was really sad. I think it was full of emotion and the entire piece of poetry was really meaningful and I think it's always best to vent with poetry or song or some kind of activity to get through anything and everything.

    Keep up the great work, Raven. I enjoyed this very much. It was written really well.

    Different but Well Penned

    Not a half bad little poem here sis. its strange as you stated but its very well penned too. its mixed indeed in laot of spots and you did go all over the place through out this poem. to me it seemed to leaen towards you missing your mamama figuritively speaking but then in another way you were writng this from the stan point of view as a psychiotic person who has gone mental. any ways a very provokative but well penned poem that goes everywhere but if you stick to it then you can understand it more. anyways good work and glad to see ya writing again.
