Motherless Poems - Poems about Motherless

The weeds have sheathed the garden from its care as more nails than wood appear of a house lacking adjectives. A sun liberated from scathing entrapment amongst an overburdened forest whose boughs are heavily laden and are unforgivingly denied rest. Dark exacts night's flit to the gloaming of a lightless day and as such ascribe...

oh! gentle breeze! flow past my fingers to caress the meadow, Wash my fair feet, silver stream as you whisper to the pebbles, watch my face as you float white clouds! high up in the blue, blue sky, smile at me, wave to me, spring flowers, and not mock at my golden hair under my straw hat! I am nature, I am a...

REQUIEM FOR A MOTHERLESS CHILD Hallelujah….. Hallelujah…..Hallelujah Leaning on the somewhat-padded kneelers is a family lined horizontal to the father. This is as close as they’ve been to each other since the last show was put on. The first act is always the same. Smiling faces, awkward embraces with peace be with you’s. The daughter distracts herself by etching “help,” on the...

I was buried in a tomb for unknown persons. When I was alive I knew nothing of this life. Now that I'm dead I seem to have acquired it all. My heartless mother abandoned me, unwanted, Left me on the cold stairs of the door of Poor Claire's. The rain fell incessantly and I cried hungry. It was a time when...

I wake in sweats Drenched in the regrets Of a desert womb This empty tomb Where lie the never born Whom I may never mourn Never mourn this constant lack That has me forever in deepest black Never sit and talk beside their graves For I can never bury the bodiless babes Never sit and silently pray For what dies inside me every day. © Barry Freeman...

I've raised myself for more than 12 long years; Never had a mother to console me in the midst of tears I never had a mother to show how to be a "lady" or to cook & clean; Nor did I have a father to show me what a real man was or how one...

Today’s the day they bury the woman who birthed me. Not my mother. There is no sadness in my thoughts. No tugging at the heart. The tender bond between a mother and daughter we did not share. She was merely a woman in the world of billions who chose life over abortion only to give me torment and agony during...

Motherless Child In her breathless eyes of teary blue I gently gasped in and out of view. Born out of pain into an empty room, torn in vain from a barren womb. My infant heart had come to rest upon the heaving of her breast. No words needed, none were spoken, in silent nurture bonds were broken. A cold embrace...

For he has no mother to provide the food, a poor little bird pecks at drifting cloud and eats the pieces that bubbles up in the cloud as a mist to fill his empty stomach. Fail to withstand midsummer’s burning heat though the little bird’s wings were grown to cover the darkening nightly air, alas, he couldn’t fly in...

The depression is taking over my heart, the pain breaking my soul down like crumbles of sand how do I fight the pain of a motherless womb? the joy of motherhood is slipping from my fingers, so far that I can’t grab it the pain is eating me alive I fake a smile...

You walk around without a clue The memories you've missed, have also missed you Yet you keep on going without looking left or right The big picture is nowhere in sight You continuously repeat the cycle I had to release myself from you. I completely understand the life you were faced But I don't agree with the decisions you've made After I gave...

My mother believed kids should be seen and not heard And that teens have no right to be sad They contribute nothing, everything is done for them What reason to be upset could they have? She didn't seem to get that kids have feelings And teenagers have more than most It's no wonder I grew up emotion with no meaning It's no...

I had just gotten off of the rail car, and the train had departed the station. I was about to leave when suddenly faint "meowing" had caught my attention. I searched for the source's locality and came upon a most unfortunate tragedy. Laying smack in the middle of the train tracks was the lifeless carcass of a dead cat and hovering...

Looking into your laughing eyes I can't help but wonder... Did you or did you not know That the one you cling to is only an aunt? That your mother still young had fallen aside? That this world you jump in is dying with vice? I cry when I see you smile For fear of the day your pigeons die The day these...

Whispers in your ear you fear The child with no mother is near As she promotes her soul within To see you lifeless cunning grin The warped faze and constant glaze Undress your body with ever rage As she smells fear from near your maze Your mind at ease is restless peace The clock strikes 12 tic toc heart stopped She warms you up...
