I Love You Mama

Many reasons Have led me to this To leave this world Of negative bliss Boyfriends, who wants them Parents who fight To be in my shoes I will no longer tonight My diary is written As to why I must leave I have felt this for years As I internally grieve My i-pod is charged As I take my last walk Goodbye grey clouds I'll miss your thunder talk I touch the walls Of buildings I've been in Leaving my trace As I graze my skin Through the park Where my innocence was taken By my boyfriend I thought Left me distraught, forsaken I reach my last door Its just a gap in the fence As I see where I'll lie My desires immense On the sleeper I sit As I await my fate Say hello to tomorrow I'm sorry I can't wait The light gets brighter As it nears my life's drama Tears stream from my eyes I love you mama

James, This is very sad. I interpreted this poem to indicate the girl or young woman is dying of a disease/sickness/cancer, perhaps aids from her encounter with her boyfriend. And while she doesn't want to die, she has begun her inevitable journey. I'm unsure whether her spirit is traveling through coridors and places she been, but it seems she is on her death bed, life fading as she tells her mother she loves her. Very sad poem.
