Reminded

Every 20 February, I am reminded Unwanted Rejected Unloved Every 20 February, the dagger twists Impossible to love Difficult child A duty not a joy Every 20 February, I am reminded Living mistake Born a stranger Resented existence Every 20 February, the dagger twists Never good enough Not deserving Never worthy Every 1 September, I am reminded I am love I am strength I am enough By Cathrin Stuart

a heartfelt poem. always know you are enough and if people made you feel that way it is not your fault. our mam left home when i was 13 it broke our heart took years to know it was nothing i did wrong. she loved us but just had a new man in her life and had to move on for her own sanity i guess.i believe in God and faith gets me through. my daughters birthday is 18th feb my mams birthday would of been 22 nd of feb she died of cancer but i pray she is in a good place even though it still hurts.
