Watchful eyes, and dissapointing sighs;
I know all to well my failures.
Yet, what kills the most,
are the stares of sadness from my mother.
Broken hearted, and somewhat lost;
she fears the unknown, for me,
for her little Peyton, her Gabe;
that they will be lost as well.
All I can do is fight, for everything.
Unsure of the choices being made,
I keep pushing through, until
I fall down cold, breathless for eternity.

your doing well for yourself. Im sure she is by your side, will be by your side in whatever you have done and will do. She might be dissappointed but you have to live your own life and make yourself into who you want to be. She just wants the best from you, and you are trying hard. You aren't a failure, we all make mistakes its how we learn
Good poem though.

In life all we can do is to be the best that we can, and if we fall a little short, well at least we tried. Reading this makes me wonder why I don't come visit more often, such wonderful writing and painfully dark.

I do try to get the darkness out once and a while...otherwise, it would build up, and well we know that just isn't healthy for anyone! Life is too amazing and too wonderful to be caught up in the darkness that sometimes seems to engulf our senses! I hope you're doing well my friend!

I'm 24 today and looking back on my life and watching my children grow...I fear that I've been nothing but a disapointment to all those who love me the most...and that I will end up being that for my childrend despite how hard i'm trying right now... I hate downer moods...specially on my birthday.
