Grow Up With Me

By E.E.M

This book is based on some of the my  insights at the time being a teen mom and growing up to a young lady.

It's my first small book where some might relate, some might not. 

These were years ranging rom 1994 - 2011, going through judgements, adversities, mood ups & downs, job hunting,being a mother.

Including some of the male escapades I encountered, ending with different variety of poems that was coming to my mind at the time I was pen and paper happy.

 

I hope you enjoy, it's not for everyone..is any book?

My Diary

In this dairy are my thoughts and feelings,

Where I have been and done my social dealings.

All the things that I have achieved

And the times where stress or relieved.

All the wishes that I want to come true,

Seeing all things different and some new.

Mentioning events that should or shouldn’t have happened.

In this diary my thoughts I keep

To my surprise no one has had a peep...

YET!

WHERE

IT

STARTED

Wasn’t asked

I wasn’t asked to be born, so don’t ask me

It was their fault, they made me you see

What is with the attitude?

Where does it come from?

I don’t know, I’ve been round my Mom!

What is with the buckhead?

What’s with that?

I don’t know go ask my Dad!

Why do you do that?

Why do you scorn?

Don’t ask me, I wasn’t asked to be born!

Not Once

You had the choice to give me away

You made the decision to induce my stay

Now I am here, you don’t know what to do

I am a girl, not a boy, I guess you’ll just have to see it through

Growing up I did not see

How you treated me so differently

Started to realise sooner rather than later

Taking it in, bottling it up couldn’t voice that data.

Looking back which, I don’t want to do

You always told me to ‘shut up’ and that would do for you!

Don’t make you look bad, what would people think you’d say

I didn’t know any better, always pushed it your way.

From outside looking in, with my sister I see.

With history repeating itself, I now see very clearly.

You can do with a few parenting tips on how to be

As you just didn’t want to take responsibility!

I look at you now, you’re weak pathetic, you’re still in that head space...YOU’RE STILL THERE!

Jealousy, bullying money oriented, gets you nowhere.

Just because you had a bad past does not give you the reason why

So self-righteous, standards so high unable to reach yourself

But you do nothing wrong, obviously it must be myself.

Why do you think I had the ‘I don’t care attitude’ for all to see

Would neve trust you as far as I could throw you

I don’t know why but I always wondered where you went wrong too.

I am going to explain as that what you’re supposed to do

Talking it’s the gateway communication

Dictation was you only station

Listening it gets you a level of understanding

Only what you want to hear as always is so demanding

No form of praise, a hug or I love you

I am still not sure if this is getting through

There are times I have commented on my mental state from the past
