M's Poetry

This Time

This time I smile for real
cuz finally mom we are on good terms
This time my last words aren't anger
it's simply "I love you"
and if by a cruel twist of fate
we never get to experience our future
I am content now with our past

This time as I hold you in a hug
we're fine I promise
cuz I realize now
it was me you really did love
it just isn't your fault
you were raised never to show it

I believe now you had good intentions
and I think you understand all my frustrations
you & daddy maybe was just over each other's head
when you don't get a proper education
sometimes the world will eat you alive
this time my mind has expanded
and I finally see and understand
the gray areas.....
