Array ( [sid] => 172731 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Open your eyes [time] => 2012-05-29 21:10:12 [hometext] => [bodytext] => What is her problem?
Why can't she see?

He is her son
He is doing the best he can

I hope she does not regret this one day
He is scared for his life

His LIFE
His ripe, just unfolding life

Her daughter sees it
She wants to sever ties

Open your eyes
Can't you see?

Who is responsible?

Who cares

Just be there
For him
For her
For you

Without a mother
At such a ripe age
In his situation

OPEN YOUR EYES
Your heart is sure to follow

I know you didn't have a great example
Be the mother you never had

To the son
you may very well lose [comments] => 1 [counter] => 143 [topic] => 39 [informant] => workinprogress [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Grief )

As I see it, - we have here a very selfish and domineering mother, trying to hold on to her children and not permitting them to grow.
Fascinating topic.
Well done. Loved it,.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
