Why Can't I Seem to Learn?

Folder: 
Mother Poems

Why can't I seem to learn,
not to go behind mom's back.

It's probably because
I want to text who I want to text,
but know that I'm really not able to.

But that doesn't excuse me
from going behind mom's back,
to text people that I want to.

I shouldn't be deleting texts
that mom hasn't seen,
because that's a rule that she has in place.

I need to listen to what she says,
and be the good kid who always
does what she's been told to do.

Although, that's what I usually do,
I know I have to work harder,
to make up for what I've done.

Went behind my mother's back,
to text this guy on who I have a crush.
But he doesn't think of me that way,
and I know this, but I still can't help
the way that he makes me giggly.

Please make me stop!
God, can you hear me?
Please make me stop!
Help me to make the right decisions!

Apparently I can't make them myself,
so I need you to help me!
Be here for me!

And If you're too busy,
you could have my baby sister
come down and help me instead!

I'd listen to what she'd have to say,
changing my behavior
just to make her proud.

I bet she's disapointed
in me right now.
Maybe she doesn't really
want to have to see me do this.

But I need some help,
I need to stop!
I need to get mom's trust back!

Author's Notes/Comments: 

A poem I wrote about how I'm feeling since my mom checked my cell phone, and figured out that I had deleted some text messages before she could see them.

Trust important and you are too young still to o chasing love

Although its addictive at your age... Heck any age! It you'll get it back and any guy that not wait for ou is no guy worth waiting for ;) the right things come along at the right time, try not to be distracted when it does! :D. By the way did you feel a tickle a very slight tickle the other day or night or an itch on you cheek? Perhaps lying in bed before sleep? :)


Don't let any one shake your dream stars from your eyes, lest your soul Come away with them! -SS    

"Well, it's love, but not as we know it."

Um... I might have. When I read this, just now I got a tickle above my eye, right in the line of my eyebrow.
