Just Hold Me by Jeanelle
Not many have ever known
and if I tell - who would believe?
There's nothing I can call my own
not even the things I have achieved.
It's always better that way
All that is aching inside
It's better for it to stay -
covered up with hurt's pride.
All in good time
I will open the gate
of this little heart of mine
in a moment of fate.
For a soul that's been torn and
a heart controlled by other
there's not much you can do
But to hold me in your arms -
my dearest Mother.

I'm an adopted child. My upbringing was good, full of money and every thing I needed - except real love. My adopted mother was very possessive and tried to make me into a person I wasn't - she tried to make me like she is - and everything within me cried against it.
Well, good news is - I found my biological mother in May 1998 and we are so happy. We love each other so much, also her husband and my two half sisters and my little half brother. We are like a family that was never apart.
But it's hard for my mother to understand me, to see the pain I still have - so I wrote this to explain to her how I felt and what she must do when she doesn't understand my feelings and my moods!

Wow, that's a true poem! Coming from the heart is exactly how great poems are made! I'm sure it made you feel great to right down how you felt since somethings are to hard to just say to their face. good luck in the future and all you do! always remember that when love is involved the world can be yours! ;) - Crystal |

Jeanelle - Your poem and story brought shivers up my spine and tears to my eyes. I was adopted out 43 years ago, and this last year on May 15th, my birth mother found me. I have the same feelings, your poem says it all, except my a-mother did love me with all her heart, but she tried to mold me into who she wanted me to be, and now that I hknow my real mom. I see who and why I am the way I have always been, and am allowed to be. WE have a wonderful, special relationship and it is the absolute best thing that has ever happened to me. Thank you - Suzan |
