maritalbliss Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Maybe this should've gone in "Poetry" but its just some lyrics that got to me about my relationship with my mom... the pain is just more realized for me in lyrics: Sometimes I think about you Wonder if you're out there somewhere thinking bout me And would you even recognize The woman that your little girl has grown up to be Cause I look in the mirror and I'll I see Are your brown eyes lookin back at me They're the only thing you ever gave to me at all Oh, I hear the weather's nice in California There's sunny skies as far I can see If you ever come back home to Carolina I Wonder what you'd say to me I think about how it aint fair That you weren't there to braid my hair Like mothers do You weren't around to cheer me on Help me dress for my high school prom Like mothers do Did you think I didn't need you here [ I Wonder lyrics from link removed ] To hold my hand To dry my tears Did you even miss me through the years at all Oh, I hear the weather's nice in California There's sunny skies as far I can see If you ever come back home to Carolina I wonder what you'd say to me Forgiveness is such a simple word But it's so hard to do when you've been hurt Oh, I hear the weather's nice in California And just in case you're wondering about me For now on I won't be in Carolina Your little girl is off Your little girl is off Your little girl is off to Tennessee
EQD Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 my mom wasnt there either. after a while it doesnt even bother you anymore though. *hugs* good poem
maritalbliss Posted February 4, 2009 Author Posted February 4, 2009 yes, it does get better with time.... and our relationship is surprisingly a lot better now... probably not like most people's with their mom but its a start. but hugs to you too
maritalbliss Posted February 10, 2009 Author Posted February 10, 2009 sorry it took so long to respond, I havent been on here for days! (haha 5 like thats a lot or something ) But yes, I do still talk to her. She wasn't there for me in a emotional sort of way, fast forward a few years and I got kicked out of the house for being engaged to my now husband (because she didn't like the fact that we were getting married so young) and then she deliberately didn't go to our wedding... completely missed it! I guess you could say I'm "over it" ... and I've definitely forgiven her for (my childhood) and the fact that she purposefully missed my wedding (one of the most important days in my life to me) but things like that just stay with you. I guess I just can't (and hopefully don't) let it "define" me. This is the only place (besides with my husband) I've ever opened up about this... granted its the "virtual world" but you know, it really does sort of help
