How can i understand
what it means to provide a home
when i have not felt
what it’s like
to have
two hearts beating
together
i age, and think to myself
that i understand
sacrifices
willpower
strength
and resilience
without ever having
the expectation to reciprocate
the way She has
moulded Herself to fit my life
when our souls were empty
she was the river that filled me first
when i was tired
She would rise as sunshine
to help me grow
when i was weak
She became my energy
only to give up what little She had left
how did i get here
if not for Her
She is a fortress
a barricade that rose
around me
that fought against the world
for a single soul
the wall that has held me strong
My mother is a shapeshifter
and I am trying to flow
into the ebbs and waves of who she is
so that i too
can lay myself down
and ask
who do you need be to be?
With all of the love for my angel Mama on earth, and my angel Oma in heaven.
I am the luckiest to have you both.
Kolina
