Always Know
her voice always calms me
in the middle of my storms
her acceptance makes me feel
instantly reborn
when I feel as low as I could
possibly be
she is the one person I know
will be there for me
my mother’s love shall never let go
the one thing my heart will always know
Drive me Crazy
her screams drive my crazy
she puts my nerves on edge
to get away from her
I would hop that ledge
of proverbial doom
bringing this life to an end
hopefully to never hear
her disappointment again
and I will never be what she expects me to be
and her lack of acceptance shall drive me crazy

How true this is. I know my kids must feel the same way about me.
The best thing about it is.....even when they hate me they love me.
Thanks for entering.
