i cant remember

Contributed by eloise on Sunday, 19th January 2003 @ 01:20:00 AM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry

i cant remember the last time
you said that you cared
nor the last time
you held me in your arms
and told me you loved me
i remember the last time i saw you
i hadnt seen you for weeks...
and you poked me in the stomach
and said...
youve lost weight, isnt that good?
it was then that i realised
that this relationship we have
is wrong.
you didnt say you loved me,
or that you missed me,
or that you wanted me home.
all the things a mother should say
dont you know it hurts?
when you dont support me,
when you tell me to diet...
i eat one meal a day
yet you still say that its too much.
im not that fat...
im not even overweight
you compare me to Ashlee
tell me she is what i should be
please dont look at me
if you so dislike what you see
dont you understand?
im a teenage girl
i want to be happy with my body
but how can i be
if you taunt me with these dumb diets
that i dont need anyway
why cant you be happy
why cant you love me
for who i am
why cant you just be my mum?

Oh the words from a mother! I wish I could still hear! I know you think she doesnt care,but that might be her way of saying she does! Cherish the moments with her they might some day be gone! Good peice! Christina
