You forgot my birthday how dare you?
you are acting strange to me, why?
What have I done this time?
you are supposed to be my mum
you don't call me anymore
well I have feelings too
and I really don't care anymore
you've hurt me so many times
parts of me is hurting
parts of me doesn't care
i bet you don't forget the others
oh no that's right you don't
and in a few days it's your turn
shouid I forget yours
I really should to show you
how much pain you've caused
but I won't forget your day
because I'm not like you
I'm just a better person
that you don't like me too
I really don't understand how
you have gone through this week
and not know it was my birthday
well I don't care
you only care about the others
sll the time that's what you've done
you've left me out all the time
I think you don't love me anymore
because of my childhood abuse
it really wasn't my fault
but maybe it was
I don't care
but I do
I really don't care

thanks @Maggie
i keep reflecting about my birthday and lack of love from my parents.
it hurts
i know i have a beautiful family of my own
and a granddaughter that i so much love and cherish
but ...... there is still something in me that is very disappointed and the feeling of unloved is really getting to me
i just can't work it out, maybe i never will.

It’s only a teardrop
So fragile and so small
Its only a teardrop
Why can’t I let it fall
Maybe it’s a symbol
Of pain deep down inside
Maybe it’s the pain
I still prefer to hide
I know if I let it leek
It soon becomes a creek
With memories held behind a dam
Soon flooding down my cheek
Thought tears are flowing from my eyes
With rivers soon to start
I feel they come not from my eyes
But come straight from my heart
Its only a teardrop
Why can’t I let it fall
I guess because deep down inside
Its not small after all.

Hi @Snowie @Former-Member
I'm good, thank you. I feel peaceful and a little sad. I thinking about having a break from the forum and I wanted to leave with a little poem of peace.
I'm listening to Welcome to Wonderland:

Pretty little girl with light brown hair
Dry all those tears people are starting to stare
Come take my hand and put on a smile
No one can know your emotional turmoil
Take all trauma and bury it down deep
Don't let it show or people will speak
They will tell you your bad
Your hurt is not real
So dry those tears
Put on a smile
Bottle up your turmoil
