Poem of the Day for 05/19/26 Release by Ryan M Evon How hard should it be to let go of your mother? I seem to have done it easy enough. I know her, but don't understand I feel her, but don't touch I ignore her and don't care. But she's your mother! Yeah, she's my mother. Twisted, addicted, enraged, apathetic, pathetic, self-centered, self-serving, self-destructing and cold. So I let go. How hard should it be to disown your sister? I seem to have done it fairly quickly. I see her, but don't look I hear her, but don't listen I ignore her and don't care. But she's your sister! Yeah, I'm her brother who she didn't mind exploiting, ignoring, using, deceiving, forgetting, pilfering, disappointing and leaving alone. So I let go. Decided I don't need it in my life, my mind, my heart, my soul, my energy, my hate, myself...my release 06/16/2003 Visit Ryan M Evon's Library Release Copyright © 2026
