Daughters

I’m so
glad that
you’re no
longer here

To see
what
they’ve
become

Both
bitter and
twisted
individuals

Who’ve
lost the
love you
taught them

      1. Awwww. Sounds so tough, sorry ๐Ÿ’™.

        I can be your adopted son, if you like? ๐Ÿ˜…

        1. Haha! Don’t worry, they are not my daughters –
          I’m nowhere near old enough! ๐Ÿ˜‰
          And trust me, you wouldn’t want me to be your adopted mother.
          I can barely look after myself most days! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ–ค

    1. It’s just a shame that you have to hurt when others forget how to show that love to you.
      And that sometimes to free yourself from that prison the only thing you can do is walk away from them. ๐Ÿ˜”๐Ÿ–ค

      1. The picture is not too clear to me here, but maybe make it as far away as possible. Moving on pays off… we’ve been there a good 4 years ago and it is still hard to grasp how people can actually behave. Take care

        1. Sorry, I try to write in a way that if those who I write about ever saw it they wouldn’t be able to identify themselves.

          It means not all of my poems are as accurately autobiographical, so can appear a little confusing to others.

          Needless to say, a significant trauma was suffered and the reaction / treatment of some some family members towards me has been such that I’ve felt the need to walk away from them.

          And, opposed to the odd ranting poem on here, my life has been all the better for it.

          You’re right, it is hard to grasp how people can actually behave – but I’ve now realised that it’s on them and not me.

          And also that it provides good inspiration for writing!! ๐Ÿ˜

          Thank you for your kind words ๐Ÿ–ค

          1. Put it on them; that’s where it belongs! I don’t write poetry so maybe I am taking your words too much word for word here. For shy people it’s a long road to understand it’s really sometimes the other people
