Mother 3 (this)

By kyew

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Mother, can you see me now? The wall is gone you need but turn- But turn slowly and carefully. Mother, have you grown wiser? Please, not more clever with a deeper bag of tricks- Let the games be over. Mother, I have learned to love. Love so selfish and demanding- Demanding selflessness from you. Mother, I can show you love. No peaks or valleys to obscure the broadness- The larger view of One. Mother, have you learned to accept? If I give to you what you took from me- Take me for granted. Mother, I wish you could know. I would tell you but I can't- Force the words, SEE my words. Mother, why the tears? Life is joyful pain- Feel the pain in happiness. Mother, I will hold you. When the night is cold and dark, do not fear- We are never alone. Mother, this is yours. This barrier of ego-self- I trade you me for Us. Mother, am I really dying?
