Heart Shapes

I didn't want gifts
The reactions spoiled the day
I'm awkward like that
Please take the things away
Things they'd made or chose would be fine 
Not things to put me on the spot
Why does this happen time after time
I thought it was me (and it is of course)
But it feels everyone's set up
It's the absolute worst
I make a request for this not to be
It's disregarded 
Now I feel there's something wrong with me
My older daughter saved the day when she got out of bed
Produced a card drawn in pen
Containing thoughts from her head
She'd made me a Lego heart and a bracelet saying 'love'
It's all that I wanted
(And a wish that mother's day wasn't so tough)
But I still have to endure conceding I'm bad
I'm not quite sure I want to
I'd rather no one be sad
So if you're stuck for a gift, the shops don't raid
Get the children involved
We just want something homemade
