Mommy


I see her smile I see her cry I see her hurt Brown Eye'd sunshine. I've seen her heart get ripped and torn People have passed, so we can mourn. Life is Easy when happiness is close With family, friends, and love, and hope. But when the days of smiles are gone The tears have fallen The pain left marks The hurt still hurts The tears still damp The people are equal from pain they have felt Pain is alive between you and myself Though some of us distant, all of us different, our pain will be hidden, locked away in our prison. Our joy must be little when Thoughts must be many but thoughts never stop, joy does, pain is envied. And pain is given. Pain doesn't heal, But pain doesn't mention That new pain blocks out the old pain. A time will come where all this will change We won't be entangled, they've loosened our chains. We can now break away, and find a new life Be confident today and tomorrow is bright. I have grown into something that I wasn't before My mom opened windows, I chose to open doors. She showed me my heart God let it soar I wish I went through the window, But Pain has been born. So I will grow old, Watching it progress. Watching it mature, building the stress. But My mother, Will Always Be Strong.

I have a complex mind. I am unable to speak surface, no matter how hard I try. These words are more than just words. These characteristics of who I am can be interpreted as pleased, but PLEASE help me as I'm venting'- , because Lord knows Ace The Poet loves undivided attention.
