What i want Mum

by Amanda   Mar 6, 2005


I want you to love me,
I want you to care,
I want you to want me,
and always be there,

I want you to hold me,
When i feel sad,
I want you to hug me,
and i will be glad,

I want you to see me,
I want you to call,
Why weren't you there,
when i was small,

I want to tell you,
What i have seen,
I want to show you,
The places I've been,

But

You don't love me,
You don't care,
You don't want me,
You're not there,

You won't hold me,
When i feel sad,
You won't hug me,
and I'm not glad,

You never see me,
You never call,
You even left me,
when i was small,

I can't tell you,
What i have seen,
I can't show you,
where I've been,

But

I still love you,
No matter what,
you are my mum,
but have you forgot?

    Hi, i am glad i found this poem, the title stood out to me and drew me in to read it.

    i really like the topic of this poem as like you said it is hard to write about but when it is written it is very powerful and makes an excellent poem.

    what i like about the poem is how you write what you want and then you go on to repeat it but in the reality of what is, i think that works really well.

    i also like the ending verse when you say you still love your mum because it just how things work isnt it, no matter what has been done or said you still have feelings for your parents. think it is part of being human and i think this poem shows a good example of this.

    i relate a lot to this poem and how you feel, so i can imagine how hurt you feel and let down you feel by her. please keep writing i think this is really good.

    anouther good poem. It sounds like your mum isn't a very nice person though. Is she? I just get a certain bad vibe when I read these poems about her. Its all good though. Keep up the good work.

    thats a sad story, but nicely written, i like how you switched it up with the But's and followed the same form as the previous section. good job!
