Poetry: Deceived

by tinaadams

Created on: May 06, 2009

A face in a photograph

Is all I can know

I found you to late

No bonds can grow.

I thought you didn't care

Or so I'd been told...

Just upped and left

with a heart ice cold.

Now I know different

You were never made aware

I was your daughter...

Left rotting in care.

I found your son

Learnt of your fate...

A mind dissolved...

To a child like state.

Cruel, sick and twisted

That's how I see life,

Tearing me up

Like a jaggered knife.

A mothers mistake

a truth she denied,

Keeping apart...

A father and child.
