I was going to put this in creative but I don't know if someone will stumbles across it that doesn't want to
I was wondering if anyone knowns of any good poem websites or even just a poem that describes something about one or more of these things:
- growing up with an alcholic parent
- Feeling responsible for keeping a parent alive
- leaving a parent at a young age by choice
- The children of alcholic parents
- The aftermath of emotional abuse/ neglect
- witnessing beatings
- left feeling hollow and lost after a difficult childhood
- guilt of leaving family members/people behind
- losing siblings
- wanting a parent to fight for them
- waiting on a call from a parent knowing it will never come
- depressed parent
- being forgotten about by family
I tried google but the two main websites that come up are family friends poems and poem hunter, looking for something different as I've had a look at most of the poems on those websites, even if you have your own would be helpful.
Thanks x
