Best For You
I want you to know that I love you so,
I am sorry that I didn’t keep you,
I wanted you to have a better life, you know.
I could’ve given you love and happiness.
Only a mother can bear the pain that I feel,
The guilt that lies inside the depths of my soul,
I am no longer a mother bearing a child to be born.
I am a murderess who neglected her duties.
This is not how I pictured or wanted it,
I wanted to raise my children with a father and in wedlock,
But you came at the most inopportune time.
I thought less of me and of only what was best for you.
You will always still be mine, whether inside me or not,
I love you, my dear darling, with all my heart.

My poems that are mostly about love, relationships, the toxicity of those two things sometimes, and lately about women empowerment. My next genre is the perception of color and race. I believe that words, no matter from who can help change and save a life. Feel free to contact me via social media or email. I am always looking for the next inspiration.
