THESE NIGHTS OF SOLITUDE

Laura🌻

There is sorrow that cannot be denied.

The Mom that gave birth to me

And I've known since childhood

Is now gone from this world...

But not within my being.

 

Our story is present

Beyond reason...

Beyond time...

Beyond any explanations

Whatsoever at all.

 

There is not much

That anyone can say to me

That will mitigate such loss.

The connection is not gone...

It's only changed.
