You have the eyes of the innocent
I can see that your heart is pure
Which means to me that I shall
Follow you all the days of my life
And copy in all that you do
I shall mimic everything about you
I should where my hair like you do
I should wear my clothing as you do
FOR MY MOTHER ONCE TOLD ME
If I want to get to heaven
Then I must be more like you
Does this mean my own mother loves
You more then she loves her own blood
If in fact this is so then I should follow you
All the days of my long long lonely life
YES IN FACT I SHOULD WANT TO BE YOU
Now I will sit, think, and plot to be like you
In fact I will put a spy cam on you to know
Just exactly what you are up to when alone
I must be careful that you don't see what I do
There are those who would take it the wrong way
Then in fact one day I will become you
Then my mother would love me too

Wow, striking words.
Hi Qnuan ;} Thank you,,, does that mean you like it ;} I put it up on a poetry web- site when I first wrote it. One of the ladies said "oh my dear,,I'm sure your mother love's you,, if you want to talk email me.
I definitely like it Debbie! There is a lot of emotion inside, which gives it a strong artistic flare. The way you approach and describe your feelings and the way the discourse unfolds to the unexpected end allows the reader to almost climb inside of you and feel it with you. If you’ll allow me I will sympathise with your plight; I’m sure it must be terrible to constantly try and live up to something or someone else and feel like you’re always coming up short in pleasing others.
Hey Qnuan ;} my mother never said that to me, I was watching "single white female", 30 minutes or so ,the movie came out 1992,, though I wrote my poem 2010,,, glad I don't have a friend like that ;} you take care !
Oh, lol! Wow it's amazing that you can place yourself so empathically in her shoes! :)
Hey RAIBEART" ;} many blessing this fine day,, glad you liked it,, my mom is in heaven,, she never said that to me ;} I wrote it as I was surfing the channels and came to "Single White Female" remember that movie? No doubt some of us do know people like this ;} The pic.,, is a poster I've had scene the 80's ;}
