Amanda Edwards Poems

I’ve loved you for many years
These tears
...

I’ am utterly alone
No one treads this course
I show no displeasure
...

Love is Love
It comes and goes
It melts away
Just like the snows
...

As he lay dieing
He requested to see
The snow fall falling
Though he could not speak
...

If you have read my other poem you know that my relationship with my father is more than a little rocky. My mother and I haven't seen him in five years. Well not intentionally, what I mean by that is that we do have the unfortunate occasion of running into him. The last was quite a show. It's embarrassing and unfortunate, but hey what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. I love my mom. She gives me strength, and inspires me. This poem was written with her in mind, because I’ am not the only that had to suffer.

We’ll be strong,
And we’ll rejoice,
...

Oh come now
It’s the time to stop swirling
Need to start living
A beautiful full life
...

Thank you father for never being there,
Thank you for all your cruel stares,
...

A fool
That’s what I feel I’ve been
I put my trust in a guy
Thought he was my friend
...

Sarcastically funny
Cynically sweet
Blonde with brains
Brutally honest
...
