Black Poetry : u were supposed to love me

[emanuel goodman]

You were supposed to love me. you were supposed
to guide me caress me embrace me. Instead u treated me
like it was my fault for your previous past. Like it was a right
of passage for negative events leading to a cycle of fury
uncertainty,unreasonable uncorrectable mistakes that were
brought to my world by you. You were supposed to love me.
That is the number 1 rule in the handbook from mother to son.
However u did not prescribe to to the model. You choose to
pass on what was given to you. A life of rage and pain
centered in a pit and bordered by self doubt. It left me with an
unwilligness to accept true love from a women.You were
supposed to love me ,yet u were unable to. But u left me with one
thing. How not to pass something on just because it was given to
u. peace hotep family my first offering a little personal but i
had to get it off my chest in an open form to move on.

I better check the birth records...you fit my description.
Emanuel...with age comes great wisdom, knowledge and growth! ...from that comes much inner pain, the pain lingers until Forgivness replaces it!
If life never hands you a lemon...you'll never know the joy of making leomade.
If Love wasn't passed to your mother, she couldn't pass it to you. But we are wiser people now, we now understand, what we didn't then. If a child never goes to school, do they get punished for not knowing their A B C's ?
Forgive..and cleanse your own heart.
I have also learned at an early age..to love from afar.

Hey Brotha...

Hey emanuel...I'm feeling your script here. No one knows exactly where love will lead them. Just as you are assured you are captain of your love-ship, surely there are strong forces actively working against your ship's destination...keep steering...Bon de la chance...:sand:

Emanuel:
This scribe brought tears to my eyes. My heart goes out to you
and your mother. I hope and I pray that you 2 are able
to unite as mother and son. I'm not one to give advice but this
is a very tocuhy subject for me. You see you only have 1 mother today,
tomorrow and forever you only have 1 so please try to make piece with her.
I am very lucky as my mother and I are best friends and
I love her to death and I tell her that every day. I wish this for you.
Dont give up keep trying to reach out to her.

queen:
I read the piece that you mentioned
It was totally BEAUTIFUL. But I am not \
surprised at the words I read coming from you
You are a beautiful person with a heart to match.

Much luv to you both
