[bodytext] =>
You say you need to live your life
and that I'm a thorn in your side.
I'm trying to tell you, it's a big world out there
and you are not ready. But you say you don't care.
You say it's your life and to mind my own business.
you are my business,you're my only child, I want what's best.
I see you struggling, not certain of the future.
Yet you push me aside , I just want to nurture.
A mothers job is to love and protect,
why can't you see this, why must you always object.
It hurts me that you think you are ready to leave,
to face the world on your own, please just let me grieve.
I know I'll worry, day in and day out this I will do,
just remember my daughter, it's because I love you.
Always know there's a place here for you,
the door will be open, it's all I can do.
I'll always be here to lend you an ear,
whatever it is, just know I'll be here.
My beautiful daughter how I will miss you,
but letting you go , is the hardest thing I must do.
So fly from the nest, and fly very high,
but remember this is not a goodbye.

You are facing one of the hardest things for a parent, just be there if they need you and pray a lot.

A child must leave
A parent must grieve
Nine out of ten
they'll be back again..

This poema shows how loving you are to your daughter. She will see your right and will love you all the more for it.

Reading this actually sent shivers down my spine. I remember leaving home and how painful it was but she will come back, even if only to visit. I feel your pain but try to be strong.

This is the way it is for everybody. But not all know the right thing to do.
You are one of the best type of mothers and are doing exactly the right thing.

this definately calls for no celebration,
well written poem expressing concearn
yet as the title suggests it is accepting
rather than resisting or denying.
Compassionate, emotionally charged.
(I coul'd think of parents that would be dancing)

Man... it sounds like your daughter needs a dad like mine, and I need a mother like hers. sheesh.
Any way, good write, and I'm sure that she'll realize (after she leaves) how much she actually needs you. Then she'll curse hindsight, because it's ever perfect. lol.

GOD BLESS,
BEAUTIFUL, SOUNDS LIKE MY DAUGHTER. CHILDREN THESE DAYS NEED TO REALIZE THAT THEY ONLY GOD ONE MOTHER AND ONE FATHER AND SHE RESPECT BECAUSE THE BIBLE SAYS HONOR THY MOTHER AND THY FATHER AND THY DAYS WILL BE LONG.
WE GO OUT OF OUR WAY TO PLEASE THEM AND THIS IS WHAT WE GET. OH NO, I WON'T HAVE IT.
