Anchors and Tears

Dandylion

 

“Dry yer tears Ma”

as he smiled and left

me

bereft and

worried again.

Rock bottom is calling but will you ever bounce

back

or will that silent slumber

steal you away

in a chemical cocktail

shoved mercilessly in your veins.

Im tired of this hollow pain

I carry by myself.

You get to leave and fly

high.

Im standing here with an anchor

of grief in my gut

hoping one day

I will see my boy again.
