POEM 5

Dear Mother

I have been an orphan as long as I have remembered
Lost a family and never a member
Jumping from one Foster home to another
Don't get me wrong, I once had a mother

She was always high as the heavens
From the day she birthed me till she left, I was seven
I wonder how she lived with the drugs in her body
Eight years old, I was talking to my mirror and nobody

I am called a child, a lost orphan
Had no parents and no love, never often
No father and a dead mother
Fosters make me dead longer

Eighteen years old, ten years has passed
Finally on my own, alone at last
A self granted mission to run from care
My dead mother I what I fear

I have never seen someone so shallow
I guess my life has always been foreshadowed
So consider my surprise when I saw her in my room
Back from my job, bitter and bruised

She complained on how I was not a good son
But I can see it in her eyes that she is having fun
A whole worse considered for the title
She complained 'my son I could not find you'

And she was lost in my life
Even if she is back, she is still lost in time
Lost my mother, escaped from her side
Devil I believe you have found a bride
