Poem Commentary

It's not easy being a single parent...sometimes the transition after a divorce takes a number of years before you can get it right, and you still will never be perfect...

P.S...Love Mommy

...And when darkness falls and I'm all alone
the faint whispers and snores sets the tone
a life not well chosen but the one I own
Uncertain of your future but the work makes me strong

Stress sometimes consumes me
when I'm about to fail
your smiles and giggles they save me
from the solitude which dwells

For each hour of pain and tear drop stain
For every memory of your birth
Which is etched in my brain
For every time you cried and I didn't know why
I never thought to give up
For you where my alibi

So many long working days
And all the long nights I prayed
For your life to be the best
and my struggles would stand the test

I'm sorry I failed you, when I chose your dad
I'm sorry I didn't keep my promises
and I'm sorry when I get mad
But I promise till the end
to always do my best
Because you mean the world to me
Mommy's little princess

true...every year which passes brings forth a new revelation of ones self, whether good or bad. It is important to embrace the bad as well as the good for in it dwells the key to wisdom which doesn't come with age but life experience and what we do with those experiences in respect to our futures is what makes us either weak or stronger .

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
