Letting You (Mom) Inside

Letting You (Mom) Inside

Mom I just want you to know that as time goes on
I start to understand more where you’re coming from.
I want to mend our bridge while we can
though I can’t always agree or understand.
When I think back sometimes I think you were just as lost as I feel
even when you were drinking your pain just as mine was very much real.
The more mistakes I make as time goes on
the less I judge you for the things that went wrong.
I think time is slowly mending you,
and I hope that it will keep doing the same for me too.
I don’t expect you to ever agree with my mistakes
I just want you to listen, and try not to throw it in my face.
I have a hard time talking to anyone
I write my feelings down until I feel done.
I feel confident enough to reach out to you now
though I want to do this without upsetting you somehow.
I want to give you my poetry book to keep and read
there is no better way for you to understand me.
Don’t worry about me from what you read
every poem is just another point in my life for which is already complete.
Until last week I wasn’t really sure what I wanted to do
somehow through all this Junior is finally doing what I want him to.
He said his trip to New York made him realize what he had,
and he couldn’t wait to come home… For now on he will try to understand.
He is trying to understand how I feel,
and I can tell from the bottom of his heart these words are real.
I guess this was one big lesson in life to help us to appreciate each other more
the one thing I can say is this year definitely opened a new door.
This year I feel that something in you has changed too
you seem mellower and it’s easier to relate to you.
I just want you to know that I love you very much,
and this year more than ever I need a mother’s touch.
I don’t blame you for anything in the past
our families love will always last.
I appreciate everything you’ve done for me,
and no matter what you guys do I’ll love you for all eternity.
