Your so domineering
To the naked eye
You think you can control me
All you do is make me cry
For so long now I wanted
To tell you how I feel
The pain is fresh inside me
How can I ever heal
I tried so many times to tell you
Just how bad it was for me
You just ignored my cries
You ever could really see
I was hurtinting on the inside
As well as the out
But my cries went unheard
It made me want to shout
I finally gave up trying
For you to see my way
I knew it was a hopeless plan
You wanted me to stay
Each time I tried to leave
You sent me back to him again
You even tried to kidnap me
I thought you were going to be my friend
I lost all my trust in you
As well as myself right now
How can I ever be strong again
That's something I never could allow
Not thinking I could ever live
With all this pain inside
I carried it with me for so long
Always trying to hide
I'm trying to see the truth of it
How I couldn't change a thing
The only thing I need to change
Is my guilt is what I'm feeling
You can't control me now
I'm taking the pain away
Starting fresh with everything
Is how I feel today

You ever could really see.....do you mean never? if this IS a fresh start for YOU, and not just a made-up story, i wish YOU well. the poem could use a bit better proofreading for what i think are just 'silly' mistakes. i enjoyed the poem....the rhyming and flow and story and short lines (though long lines might work almost as well) . if you hadn't mentioned 'mom' in the title i would have been a bit lost. i started to get 'lost' until i remembered the title. thanks for sharing. :) i hope you will have an enjoyable experience on poemhunter.
