Mum
Thats what you are to me
You listen
Advise
Compromise
Sacrifice everything in your life
Your intelligent
With an aura of sophistication
Use words like armour
Protect me with your shield
Keep me loved through each fear
You light up my world
A sparkle in your eye
Jewels in your heart
Hold my hand through every tumble and turn
Dedicate yourself
To all my needs
Cuddle me
Make my struggles unseen
At my side through the day
But only in my thoughts at night
Miles away
It makes me feel unsafe
Not knowing how you are
My demons overtake
Constant worries take place
I want you here right now
Forever to stay
To tell me stories
Let me fall into your arms
Tired with a yawn
Mum
Thats what you are to me
But this is not the way it seems
You are not my mum
You will never be
For this moment
I can only dream

Thanks for this POEM Shannon ~ and thanks for the explanation you have given to DS ! I'm in my 30's and my Mum still treats me like I'm still a Baby ! The fact that you had to rely on Surrogate and Fantasy Mums ~ makes me sad and it explains some of the angst in some of your poems. I have promised to pray for you (you know I am a Christian) and my Sunday Poems are written for you and and all my MPS Friends. Love your poems Shannon because they are very honest and in each one your share a bit more of your "soul" with us ! HUGS BRIAN XX
Thank you so much for the comment and prayers. Greatly appreciated 🙂
I got it straight away
Shannon.. it is really
Very good... great ending
Thank you so much, I'm glad it wasn't too confusing
Very good write. 'Mum' is always there for you and aways will be.
Thank you 🙂
A fine write S.
Thanks 🙂
Beautifully said Shandon . I rarely say anything about spelling , mainly because I haven't learned English yet , but two critical words in my opinion disrupt the flow of the poem because of the spelling . Comprimisee should be compromise and ore should be aura . But after getting over that I very much enjoyed the warmth and appreciation you give us in your poem .
Okay thank you, I will change those
