Warm Mother

 

A mother wrapping her arms around her child

The child sinking into the warmth

These feelings that appear so magical to you

In the moment, you feel loved

Untouchable

 

Life spinning you around its looping wheel

You, who once thought it was gentle

Are now getting spun this way and that

So brutally

Do you still think you’re untouchable?

 

Anger seeps in as you think back

To the hug mother gave so easily then

Instead, she tells you

Face it head-on”

Where’s the hug now warm mother??
