I LOVE YOU - I HATE YOU - OK, I LOVE YOU

We love them unconditionally. That’s what parents do! So we expect the same respect And love to be our due.
We cater and support them,Fulfill and aid and care, trust, believe, dispense, retrieve, And this is what we hear:
I hate your rules; home’s worse than school! You scold and make demands.I’m not free to grow and be the person that I am!
You don’t know about my day. You haven’t time to listen. The things I fear, you never hear; Im just an intermission!
I only ask for simple things; I need to grow and thrive;You’re the boss of everything; The one who must decide.
You tell me not to lie or fight; But you do both a lot. What’s right for you, is wrong for me. You break the rules you’ve taught.
My world is technology. Yours has been replaced. You laugh at my reality; you call it a disgrace.
Academics, sports and art, music, you compel Me to exceed for your prestige. I fear I won’t do well.
Dear Lord please let them trust me, I know Ill make mistakes. Help them to forgive me, whatever it may take.
Help me reach them, help me teach them all a mother should. And tell their children for us both, they did the best they could.
