I am a strong silent one

Alda

 

I am a strong silent one

 

Waiting waiting waiting

 

Never letting go

 

Never giving in

 

Never knowing why

  

Hurt and longing

 

An open  flower  going forth

 

seeking the morning sun

 

Soft and warm and peaceful

 

So bright it blinds

 

So harsh it burns

 

The connection it comes with mothering

 

I can control and am needed now

 

What a feeling of content

 

But what a frozen fear in living

 

A child who cannot grow

 

Not fast enough

 

So life becomes a song

 

The Blues are like a golden cloud

 

Embracing  thoughts and trusting me

 

They speak in secret to me

 

I am breathing deep yet breathless

 

Nothing else matters

 

I am one

 

I am love

 

Music is love

 

Clapton is God

 

Beatles 4 ever

 

Facing forward unafraid

 

Music vibrates my soul

    Ok, I give... Is this a parent talking about a connection with a child or a young child separating and longing to grow on his/her own?

    P.S. The musical tributes, especially the Beatles.
