Then and Now

Evelynn

I sit proudly on the stand next to her bed 

I represent a time where anxiety lies dead   

In the morning, she wakes up worried 

Her heart pounds

as she forms a frown

I always have the same bright smile 

I wonder when that went out of style 

It hasn't been long since we last saw one another

But I know she is far away from me

    Mother it seems. Longing in a sense for past times. But a mother's love never dies. Nicely done

  • Poetic Licence

    A feeling of longing for past times, when possibly a relationship was closer than it is now, nicely expressed and written
