Am sorry my sweet angel
For the cards in life,
You were dealt.
It is the worst pain,
As your mother
That I have ever felt.
Dealing with pain
I am no stranger,
I would lay down and die
If you were endanger.
Mistakes I have made
All through my life,
Only with you
I have no strife.
I wish you had
A better setting growing up,
And I hope you can do
A lot of forgetting,
What I did wrong.
You deserved so much more,
But I provided
Everything I could.
Now that am older
I look back and I constantly say,
' I should'
It kills me to know,
You feel so depressed
And all alone.
I only wish
You still needed me,
And it was something
You never outgrown.
I believe in you
And I know you try,
Your a victim of circumstance
And I will tell you why..
I wasn't a very strong mother,
Never had a lot of money
But my goal was,
To keep us altogether.
My love,
Is all that I have to give.
Am just praying now,
That you have learned
How to forgive..

I bet she tells you that there's nothing to forgive Raven. You did your best, thats all you could, so don't blame yourself !
Thank you my friend, been going through some struggles but am strong...
As someone who's parents were both in the picture, it's always better to have someone who cares and does their best for you rather than have two figures to feel abandoned by.
Thank you so much but so sorry if you felt abandoned..
Wow! I felt that. Beautiful write.
Thank you for reading jenny...
I am sure that she is fine Tammy and will be there for you at any time you need her.
