Mother and Son

This poem came from something someone said to me, when I said a friend had their son’s picture as their fb profile picture, I also stated his shirt was off.  They just used the phrase ‘Oh one of those Mothers with an inappropriate relationship with their son’.  I was surprised at how well articulated the point was and then quickly gave other examples.  It seems it is quite a phenomenon and however it came about it needs to stop coz no good will or has come from it

#94 Mother and Son

I've got an inappropriate relationship with my son

I know where it started

You see his Father just up and Run

I had to act fast I became a wife and a Super-Mum

Football league, buying all that he needs

This was how it had to be

He's got a little of him

A lot of me

Can you not see he is perfect as can be

I have an inappropriate relationship with my Son

He's like the Husband I never had

If he was much older you would say he was my Dad

I can't see what's wrong, he's like the Brother I never had

They say I've got an obsession with my son

You would to if you know all that we've been through

Now he is hanging with the wrong crowd

There's the weird smell from his room

I guess the police will be around again soon

Picking on my boy

Why won't they let him be

He is here most evenings keeping me company

So what's so wrong with that

Time has moved on. I still can't see what was wrong.

I've got a long distant relationship with my son
