I know generally speaking this isn't a very 'emo' poem but I gathered since poetry is a way of expressing emotions freely for some people I would post this because there is also quite alot of good poetry on this site.
I am a daughter hurting, and trying to regain my mothers love. I wrote this poem from my heart, and find poetry a very satisfying way to get my feelings out. This is the first poem I have ever really worked hard on, and actually finished. Thanks for reading it in advance...
I remember the good times,
That we once had...
But still my life,
Is oh...so sad,
I try to look forward,
But my mind goes back...
Because a piece of the glass,
On our portrait is cracked,
I try so hard to protect the glass,
I won't let it shatter...
Because you and your love,
Are all that matters,
My family is all,
That means anything to me...
Still...everything always,
Gets blamed on me,
This happens to daughters,
All over the world...
We're supposed to be perfect,
We learn this as girls
I have never been great,
Or the "best of daughters"...
And, at times I've failed,
By the things I've done wrong,
For those things I am sorry,
I didn't want you to cry...
But please remember,
My eyes are not dry,
I hope you can find,
Our love that seems lost...
For the mistakes I have made,
Came at a very high cost
A piece of my life,
Is missing and gone...
And everything feels,
Oh...so wrong,
But, there is one thing,
That I can do...
I will try to be strong,
Just for you,
One thing I feel,
Down deep in my heart...
It's my love for you,
I guess that's a start
You have a new daughter,
Now growing inside...
And, I hope that you feel
Each of her kicks with pride,
You will feel love,
Like never before...
It is your family,
You will completely adore,
Its a new beginning,
You will forget the past...
It completes you as a woman,
It will be "Love at Last"
