Mother

The one who was always dearest to me But now you are slowly killing me.Words like arrows you shoot to my heart . And I am slowly falling apart. MOTHER,You carried me and gave life to me and yet you cannot let me be. Everything I do is always wrong,yet my love for you still remains strong. MOTHER,I have found love and one so true,but somehow he does not conform to you. You drive him away,you drive me away with cruel and vicious things you say. MOTHER,I am a person on my own,God only gave me to you on loan. If you look into my heart you'll see,a daughter who is true unto thee.

Poignant write Abegail! Such it is with mothers when they think they are about to lose their daughters. The irony is that is actually what they end up doing due to their strangle-hold. Nicely done!
