A letter

A letter

This is a letter to a father who was never really  there.... a letter to a step  mother who never really cared.... a letter to a biological mother who i always dreamed about... a letter to myself now a days to find a way to let it out....  i grew up in a time where parents  weren't  there.... always with a babysitter. . Seemed no one ever cared... put through hell on earth. .. avd never will forget ... the torture we endured. .. the hell that we lived with.... scared to go home... wasnt sure the reactions... of parents that pretended our family  was a prized attraction. ..  we  cried out as kids... to anyone who would listen.... and at the end of the day... that was a horrible decision... life as we knew it was hard and misery. .. all we ever wished for was someone to set us free... as the time has gone by and we have gotten older.... i could never imagine not being my childs crying shoulder.... 

I'll never forget you!

Thank you so very much. I've been afraid to expose my inner thinking's to the world for fear that no one could truly relate. Hopefully someone can find a piece of comfort inn what goes on inside of my mind. Again.... Thank you

I feel the pain of your poem....and many suffer from having emotional neglect of a parent or parents.  Often children are victims of victims -  parents did not get what they deserved and often pass on the neglect or dysfunction.   For me,  www.Coda.org was helpful for me to learn how to love myself,  to set boundaries,  to learn to say no,  to give myself affirmations, to get rid of toxic people in my life,  to no longer accept "empty wells" in my life.

Thanks for sharing your inner thoughts....brutal honesty often brings much healing.

All the best.  Cheers!   JCG
