A Mother's Feeling of Hopelessness and Hope

Dear Son

by fionageorge


Dear Son
 
Where did it all go wrong?
I feel confused
My heart is broken
I am your mother
Yet I have lost
That feeling of love for you
Or have I?

Can a mother
Lose those feelings?
I gave you birth
But you deny me
A relationship
You are more interested
In your drugs
In your instant gratification

You accuse me and your father
Of not supporting you

Yet, how can we?
How can we support
Your degenerate lifestyle?
The way you treat others?

You are totally self-absorbed
You cannot comprehend
How your actions
Your physical and emotional abuse
Of your wife
Your children
And us your parents
Affects us all

Do I still love you?
Son, I don’t know
I don’t like the person
You have become
Some days I feel I hate you
For the pain you have caused
And are still causing
Your innocent children

They feel fear
They, like us
Never know when you will explode
Your mood changes
Scares all of us

But beneath my pain
I will always maintain
A tiny glimmer of hope
That one day
You will see
what you are doing
That one day
Something will happen
That will get through to you
Until that day, son
I will be in pain
I will suffer
I will feel I have failed you

But most of all
Until that day,
I will hang on to that glimmer of hope.
I feel ...

That beneath that rough and tough facade
Is a lost little boy
Who is in pain

Maybe ... one day ...
