She was born
Out of date and
Will never forget
How badly it felt
To be unwanted.
Such a big family
Nobody cared
Her mum too busy
To understand
Her love demand.
Loud and inner weeping
What have I done
To deserve this veto?
She couldn’t get on…
Her only support
An old little doll…

Dulce ~ such a sad 55 for today. The feelings of being unwanted never go away ~ hopefully, they fade into loving oneself...when in truth, we are all we have. Touching words.
I'm up:
Friday Flash 55 ~ DELETE
the best part is the writer is beyond this point...so sad...i have been unwanted...stirring 55.
mine is up!
My daughter (called "Teacher "K" back then) would like up all her dolls and hold a session of class, called their names, gave them lessons, and reprimanded them at times.
Those were her "unlonely" moments.
I grew up on a farm, and had many and assorted animals as friends. But otherwise lonely...yessss.
I fell sad for SO many (billions?) of the children everywhere who feel as if they are "apart from"...
Dulce, this is a fine "55" today.
LOVE and PEACE for you!
Ohhhhh, so sad! This makes me want to scoop her up and get her to smile.
I had a stuffed doggy I took every place with me when I was small. I'm told he was a Snoopy, but I can't remember when he was white and new. I've still got him, sleeping in a shoe box somewhere around here.
Such a sad, heart wrenching 55. Very well done.
I have finished my 55.
You’ll find it
HERE.
.
But it’s a groaner.
Whoa! I wonder where that emotion came from.
I am such a softy and when it comes to children and the old I melt. Being alone is not good for anyone.
I cry reading this, with love and adoration for YOU, your soul is beautiful.As the third child in a family of 9 siblings, 11 including my parents,we always had such support and love, mother always made time for us all, even if we needed more.
This photo breaks my HEART, but even today this happens , it is SAD
GREAT 55.. hugs sweet Dulce

Poor baby. Sad 55.

My God. It really shocks my heart, the reality of those unwanted children. I never understand how can someone not want a child. :( You have a gift in my Blog. Un beso!
Oh poor little girl, how sad. :(
You captured the sadness in your 55 words.
How sad. Makes me want to whisper to the mom "birth control."
As sad as this is, I think it is a blessing that you can move some of that sadness out of yourself and into this 55.
How many of us clung to our dolls or whatever else we could find to soothe us?
Prayers and love,
PG
Oh I know that child!
Sadly, it sounds as if you do as well. Very well written 55.
Oh, so sad!
It broke my heart!
Well done my friend!
Have a wonderful weekend!

We don't want to pudify you but this poem causes dragon tears. Great big dragon tears, We dragons had a confabulation and decided it would be good to tell you this before we all drown in our tears.
We consulted the ancient rimestock and were told "Anna kyynelten tulla. Anna heille vettä sielusi."
One day I had to talk with my little doll: I said her: I love you, all is ok, don´t cry, all is over!!
and she smiles:)at me.
Besos.
Shucks, Dulce. I'm hoping this wasn't you but was fiction.
Very touching and heartfelt. I think even the best of us felt at times we were alone with only our dolls who loved us. Today I have a dog instead of a doll for such times. Thank you for your beautiful poems.
Dulce, thanks for being so sweet and picking up on my "prayer" as you say. I like the sound of your poetry, but as I've said on other poetry blogs, I am terrible at understanding poetry's meaning. I'll keep trying though.
Dulce...
You are such a special talent!
Breathtaking 55 !!
Thank You from the bottom of my heart for being such a supporter of this Friday thing..
You Rock The Planet!!
That's both lovely and sad. A beautiful 55. ♥
This reflects life as an adult too, where you are surrounded by so many, yet no one really cared. Bless you.
It's so sad that misery is such a part of this mortal life. But it's also important that we acknowledge it and understand it and learn from it. A beautiful piece!
This is truly beautiful my friend. Well done and a fantastic 55 :) Have a great weekend :)
And she will be a better mother to her doll than her mother was to her. :)
Sad, yet with a sweetness. Coming here I'm always moved. Well done.
Ooo, so sad but so beautifully written.
This one breaks my heart.
Beautiful opening lines, that draws one in.
I picked you
