victoria.

-otherwise known as the ice queen and heartbreaker.
my mother, who at times is less affectionate than a worm.

cursed forever by her ongoing presence in my life,
I cannot take one step forwards
without going sideways onto the path that she sets out for me;
this path that takes me further away from my goals for the future.
I cannot be my own person, but I remain her pawn.

I’m supposed to be docile, attentive, perfect;
but that’s not who I am.
please, all I want is to live my life.

Author notes

when i saw that color i kind of went into shock.
victoria is my mom's name; and if you've read any of my past poems i wrote quite a decent amount about my mother and how she controls my life and everything. it's hard to write in just 12 lines or less; but i did my best.

In a list

    I'll bet finding that color was freaking indeed. I think often we have trouble growing up with our parents, hopefully it will evolve for you

    I think an excellent personal poem and you did it poetically Most poems like this turn to rants but you controlled it very well
