little girl lost & confetti tears
the speckled dawn
cried confetti tears
for the little girl lost
deep inside me
it rained down
& my pain failed to show
in this colorful display
the day outshone my grief
i pouted the skies weren't grey
as i walked lonely
down cobblestone streets
holding close to the pain
the sun tried to shine
& illuminate my hurt
i keep hidden in the shadows
not allowing light
on what is better left in the dark
a neglected child
still desperately seeking
mamma's attention
though it's not to be had
she has long since departed
& isn't coming back
i call to her
in the nether realm
she never answers
i wonder if it is my anger
that keeps her away
or if she is simply happy
to be free from a child
she didn't want

Sadness drapes me ...you enter along side the baby bird calling to be nourished ...drenched by the pouring rain

WoW! A stunner! I grabbed me and
wouldn't let go. I am dopted and my
adopted mother was not a perfect
mother by a long shot. Last line of
course was fantastic!

This piece gripped my heart..... Such a sad place when you have all these hurt feelings and strong emotions and can't release them or ask questions because the person is no longer here..... I know your mother is no longer here but perhaps you can write a letter to her and read it out loud expressing all the things you wanted to say and couldn't or didn't and just for a moment close your eyes and use your imagination she is answering you back.. Then tear up the letter which in return will help release some of the pain..... I would also suggest you becoming what that little girl in you needed so bad and that is love and acceptance.... You are worthy of love and you are here in this world because you were meant to be - always remember that sweet one..... Hugs...

thank you Savvy One for the love you've shown me on this write those are wonderful suggestions.. I was a teen when she passed & had all these conflicted feelings about her.. I think in part i'm afraid of fully embracing her & what she may say.. I will give the letter a try & see if that helps me better release her to be at peace & peace for me as well.. love & hugs..

You are so welcome my dear one.... That's hard when she passed so long ago... But, I think at times because we don't know our mind sometimes comes up with things to fill the blanks in and often times it isn't always the positive.... So your fear and your confliction has kept you hostage. Yes give it a try and write everything down and read it out loud. Place a chair in front of you as if she was sitting there and just speak to that chair and I pray you find some sense of closure and peace in letting her and the pain go... I pray much comfort to you. ~BSavvy

I have known the sadness of this pain for so long, it only went away, for me, when I stopped seeking answers :-(
sometimes it is better to keep the past in the past - 1000 warm hugs :-)

thank you David for letting me know I'm not alone.. yes maybe I should leave these thoughts in the dark & not shine light on them.. I can't help it though my dad passed on but so many times I felt his presence..never my mom's.. love & hugs Brenda

Tears are hard to see in the dark, yet beautiful when the light catches them.
I can't begin to tell you how much this moved me, Crim.
There are many of us, hidden in the shadows,
perhaps we can keep each other company...

this is so extremely sad, Crim;
the dark is everywhere
& it's so easy to get lost...

This one's a heartbreaker Crim. I think about the little girl and the tears well up. A genuinely moving write.
