MOTHER'S BROKEN DREAMS

MOTHER'S BROKEN DREAMS

I tried to explain and I had questions too...

Wanting a Shirley Temple in the House...

I wanted to save creatures like snakes, turtles, and anything that didn't bite me or hurt me would have been fine in my room...

You didn't care where I was too much as long as I didn't stand next to you and block the sun...

I wanted to love you and I wanted you to love me...

You made me feel like a rebel...

I should've died but, I didn't...

You wanted me to be on Star Search being an amazing child pianist...

I wanted to play the drums...

You were trying to make me into a Princess...

This is America...

Hello...

The only Princesses here are the girlfriends of guys called Prince or King...

They're in the music industry...

I know the dreams you had for me...

I tried to explain...

I had questions too...

Hugs...

​​​Benevolent Bard

None of us are perfect, B.B.
Oh sure, there are a few who like to think they are...but, no.
The biggest mistake we can ever make in our lives is failing to try.
There is nothing worse than wondering, "what if?" because we were too scared to take a chance.
Except when it comes to matters of the heart, of course.
Love, I can do without the risks or the chance.
But, that's just me...

oh, sparrowsong, this has made me cry.
despite your sorrow your words always fly.
And please stay away from the music biz.
I've seen so many die.
Your strength is your eternal kindness
and the words that help us fly.
Make us want to try.

Thank You Sparrowsong
Benevolent Bard,
Your friend and admirer,
Nigel, a black star bard.
