Mothering Mama

A silence tore her heart

A foot that crossed one foot bare

A hand that supported a jaw

A head that bent to a side

A child that cried in an arm

An accurate eye direction to a sky

A lip that touched the other quite

A colorless liquid flowing from each eye

A tear full eye of thoughts, regrets

A child that lost a breath every minute

a silence tore her heart

Mothering Mama
