Gloria Vojchehoske Poet Rhyme

Didn'T You See Mother

Didn't you see,that
I loved you so?
I never wanted ,to
let you go.

Didn't you see,how
hard I tried,to please
you?
I would have to start
over,and try something
new.

What did I do,that was
so wrong?
I stood in the background,
and tried to stay strong.

All I ever wanted,was for
you to love me.
But, now you're gone,and
still can't see.

Couldn't you see that
everything I did ,was
all out of love.
Now,it's too late,you're
with the Lord above.

Maybe someday,it will
be me you'll love.
You will be as gentle as a 
morning dove.

I tried to get there before
you went away.
I didn't make it,and now
I must pay.

I feel so guilty,and I don't
know why.
I missed telling you goodbye,
and it upset me so,and I began
to cry.

Didn't you see the love
I had inside?
The Lord only knows ,
how hard i've tried.

Didn't you see,how
easy it was?
To love me too,just
because.

My childhood is only
a memory now.
I struggled and fought,
and survived it somehow.

If I had it to do over,I
wouldn't try anymore.
I'd turn around and walk
out the door.

I still love you,I really
do.
But, my life before was ever
so blue.

I made my life what it is
today.
But somehow,it seems,
my life before now,was
all a bad dream.
My life is good today,but
somehow in my mind,I
feel I still must pay.

I know in my head that 
somehow,this should
end.
But, my love for my mother,
I will always send.
