To Be a Mom

Life is strange, weird, and insane. One day you are happy And then one day emotional pain Takes over, and leaves you open. You are left to bleed With no one to see. Maybe you should have paid heed But then again it is my right to be. My right to be me. My right to try to move on My right to try to find and see My missing three. I miss them more each day. I miss their laughs, their smiles. I miss hearing of their day. I even miss the sibling rivalry. I miss being there, Every single day, Do they know I care? Do they know how I feel? Has someone told them lies? Are they treated well? Do they look up and search the skies? Wondering if I think of them too? I miss you my missing three. I love you with all my heart. Some day your faces I will see, Praying you do not walk away. To my youngest three, Know I am here always Wanting and needing to be The one thing I am not allowed To be your Mom!

A very lovely written poem, it s really heartbreaking that the children are separate from their own mother, from someone who love them more than anyone else in the world, is it a real story or a fiction?
