Anguish

Oh my dear child, what have you done!
Is this your idea of having fun?
My child, why can you never see?
This brings naught but tears to me!

My dear child, I have lost count
Of all my trips to ‘shame’ mount
And make another trip I have to, I see
Is this ever fair to me?

Why dear, why torture me like this?
Can’t have I ever a moment of bliss?
Fighting with your siblings you always are!
Why can’t you treat them at par!

For months you have fought, yes?
Yet, no solution for this mess!
How long will continue this game?
Makes me hang my head in shame!

Pledge to me, you daily do
Yet not a single part of it is true.
Interested in your own progress you always are,
You just don’t care about those near and far!

Lot of harm you did to me
But as a mother to you, I let them be
Forgave you most times I did
Yet sometimes I did blow my lid!

You now asked me for a chance to play host
Told me it would allow us to boast.
Agreed I did to your desire
And yet here I stand eyes mad with fire!

You promised the world you did!
And yet nothing is better than less tepid!
Not one thing has been done right
And all you do is internal fight!

They showed us on the news you know?
About how we are an absolute no-no
Is this what you wanted, my child?
Accusations against you, anything but mild!

Shamed me you have in front of all,
Pushed me to tears and beyond recall
Goodbye my child, I bear no more
For I have bled enough through every pore!
