Sad
So sad
I am
That you were trapped in the expectations
Put on you by your parents
As you put them on us
So sad
I am
That you couldn’t show your love
Or maybe you couldn’t
Love us
So sad
I am
That I am not more sad
That you are gone
Because I want to love you so much

What a sad poem , its clearly showed from the world, you are trying to tell the wolrd howw deep you love is
Thank you for your kind words!
Wow. That is a very deep poem. I could feel your emotions right through those words. Great job.
Thank you so much!! That means a lot coming from you. I very much respect your judgment.
I felt this one. Is this poem about parents and childrens? Did I manage to read it right?
yes, you did!!
How deep would your love have been
If allowed the luxury of running wild and free
With your heart
That was absolutely brilliantly written and I love the voice you used. Poignant.
thank you so much!!!
What you say is sad but true. We need to break out of other's expectations of us.
Agreed. But so hard to do...
Heartfelt poem! You are very talented Marianne :)
Oh, thank you so much!!
