Grasp
With tears
Forming in her eyes
She reaches
But never felt the love
Just at the fingertips
But never being able to grasp
Her mother’s hand
Always at a distance
They were always separate
Never having the bond they wanted
Just at the edge
Not yet there
They try together
To have the love they once shared
But something separates them
And never loosens the hold
Older as they grow
Farther they are apart
Desperately trying to get to each other
But just out of the grasp
Just out of the hold of love and peace
They stand outside
The touch of fingertips
