TRUTH: YOU BECOME YOUR MOTHER, OR YOU DON'T.
53 years old
she's a mother of a few
but who's counting
when they've been grown
on their own
with lovers, they chose
to live their life
creating boundries to show
they wont turn into the child she was
when she had to become a mother
so long ago
and her truth
never set her FREE.
But she lives on
knowing she's doing her best
so she can be
somebody they want to run to
with open arms, heartbreak and joy
and whisper the three words
she heard when they were young
"I love you so much,
THANK YOU, MOMMY."
A dose labeled: MOTHERS MEDICINE
and she revels in the TRUTH
she will always be their mother
and she thinks of her kids
more than
the phone call they give
once every blue moon.
