The "Excluded" Son


Just when i thought it was love
i was proven wrong
that instant she gave more attention to my other brother
she had a favorite son and that son aint me
i dont know why or what it is
but i know that im not what she wants me to be
i try hard to earn her trust, nothing works
each attempt to gain her trust results in failure
a son who cant please his mother
the very thought of that hearts

our mother-son relationship
STRAINED
she didnt raise me, and to think i could win her love
INSANE
i guess i have no one but myself
to BLAME

to make matters even worse
my own father dont even like me

our father-son relationship
GONE
the love and attention i get from him
NONE

i get treated like a complete stranger
bet they wouldnt even help me if my life was in jeopardy
DANGER

never FAIR
if i wanted help, they'll look at me with a blank face
just STARE

and to think i thought it was love
NOT
i was wrong, my mind is heated
HOT

i feel lost as if i was never born
BANNED

right now at this very moment, tears begin to stroll down my cheeks
CRYING

  5. Omg as another writer and poet this peom struck me. Tears falling from my face. This poem took me to another place. It is so deep and thought provoking with each word as the poem continued. The more I could feel you saying these words. I would love to see and hear you recite this poem. In both forms it would be beautiful.
