I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. ~Maya Angelou

Everything in my past, has shaped me into who I am today Daughter I'm fine Thinking on all the years we had which you today opt out of Actions, decisions and choices My world is hushed and silent No laughter from grandchildren every soft embrace is faded A million words would not brings you back, none of your puzzle pieces fit together There is pain on both sides Daughter I hope you are fine I cannot live with drama and lies We often want to avoid unpleasant feelings and lose touch with who we are But you must be ready and emotionally available Our emotions are a compass indicative when we makes choices Nothing is impossible you are a part of my heart 16.11.2020 Sun :) - A-L Andresen :) Copyright © All Rights Reserved It's a part of me /Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Silent One 1st place in the contest

So sad a commentary between mother and daughter. Poignant really. If she could hear your words and the feelings that they tell, maybe she would have empathy. Best hopes and wishes to you in the future.

Your beautiful poem tells us you still love your daughter. I hope somehow you find your way back to each other. Life is too short. As you say, we must be "emotionally available" and follow that internal compass. Thank you for sharing that part of yourself, Sunshine! Love, Carolyn

Sad one. I don't know if based on truth or if on another's truth or just life seeing how things happen in the world. Reads like a good contender for the contest. Sara
