A Mother In Awe Poem by Gregory PierreJerome

I AM IN REAL TROUBLE TODAY FOR MY MOM IS IN DISTRESS

SHE BROUGHT ME UP ALL HER LIFE WITH NOTHING ASKED BACK

I AM IN TROUBLE TODAY BECAUSE I AM A MESS

MY MOM THE SWEET FLOWER I TURND INTO A MAID

I AM IN TROUBLE TODAY FOR I SHOWED NO CARESS

WITHOUT APPRECIATION I STOLE HER GOODS

WITHOUT LOVE AND RESPECT I ATE UP HER FOOD

SHE CARRIED MY HEAD UP HIGH FIGHTING MY BATTLES

BUT ALL I GAVE HER BACK WAS A BLOODY CATTLE

TODAY I AM ASHAMED FOR I WAS A HYPOCRITE

TO MY GOD, MY CHURCH, I AM OF NO PROFIT



MY MOTHER, A GARDENER OF CORRECTION, THE GUIDE OF ROSES

SHE IS THE ONE AND ONLY SANCTUARY AFTER CHRIST, MY LORD

MY IGNORANCE AND DISOBEDIENCE, MY LAZINESS AND SELFISHNESS COMING OUT THE CLOSET

I SAY TIME WITH HER IS NOT COOL, I AM ALWAYS BORED

IF ONLY I KNEW HOW MUCH JOY I LOST

ITS NOW TOO LATE I AM FIRED AS SON, I RESIGN MY POST

TO BRING YOU HAPPINESS AS JUST A CHILD AND NOT A MAN IS NOW MY GOAL

SORRY FOR THE PAST, MY MISTAKES I SHOULD HAVE LEARN FROM, I MADE A SCARY FOUL

MY LIFE NOW IS TO THRIVE IN YOUR JOY

AND STRIFE ALL NEGATIVITY FOR PEACE AND ADMIRATION

I UNDERSTAND THAT RESPECT IS NOT A TOY

I AM NOW IN SELF-CASTIGATION FOR A BRIGHTER DESTINATION

SO I PLEAD MY CASE TODAY FOR A CHANCE OF CORRECTION



THIS A NEW YEAR NOW AND I SMELL THE LOVE

ITS TRUE THAT I WAS ROTTEN BEFORE BUT WITH YOUR FORGIVENESS I WILL BE MADE PURE

SO TODAY I COME AS BEGGAR IN REQUEST FOR THIS RELATIONSHIP TO CURE

I AM AT FAULT FOR A LOT AND MY STUPIDITY BROUGHT ME TO THE GRAVE

IN THE TEARS OF YOUR EYES CAUSED BY MY WRONG I SEEK TO BE BRAVE

MOTHER I LOVE YOU SO I SUPPLICATE MY POSITION AS A SON

I CRY TO OUR GOD CHRIST JESUS FOR OUR LOVE TO BE ONE
