Guilty
11 November, 2002
Author: Barbara Goodhew
I'm not gone yet.
When I am you'll miss me I bet.
So busy with your life to think about mine.
I was the one there when you whined.
As your mother I don't want you to have regrets or guilt.
I promised I wouldn't be the kind of mother to make you feel guilty.
Never did keep my promises. Ha Ha
Hope this poem makes you feel guilty.
Not really,I just miss you and love you guys.
I just wish you had time to come,then my eyes would be dry.

| Capricorn (62.30.192.1) -- Tuesday, November 12 2002, 12:45 am I know how you feel Barb.You put so much into their lives, & when they've gone you wonder if they remember or even care.I think they do, but forget how much we miss them. They get so wrapped up in their own lives. |

| barb (216.123.56.131) -- Tuesday, November 19 2002, 04:36 am I didn't write it for people to like.I did it because of the way I felt at the time. Your comment won't shut me up. I write for therapy not to please people. It's nice when people enjoy it. But I learned you can't please everyone. Thank-you for your comment. |
| Capricorn (62.30.192.1) -- Wednesday, November 20 2002, 05:06 pm I have to agree with you Barb, I write for therapy too.I sometimes write things people might not like to hear but I feel better getting it out of my system.Of course some people write for perfection which is a different aspect of writing. You wrote from the heart because you felt hurt. I understand! It's hard for young one's to appreciate how we feel when we get older!! |
