Q: Mothers' Love Part 2

What is a mother’s love? It was stripped from me, Pain is in my heartbeat, This sorrows me, Never again I trust love, A faint trauma that wakes me From my slumber where I lay An echo in my soul, mind, heart, my being What is a mother’s love? Unconditional people say, But does that make sense to me? Can anyone explain why it doesn't make sense? I have grown weary and I found the answer Doubts that can stain a child when growing Up to an adult, Fear, Pain, Lust, Love, Trust, Blindly Opening the door to it The gentleness that has been taken away from me Saddens me Books can convey words, but not emotions of the soul Not the argument of the mind, It falls in humanity, because I am human I learn I learned that learning is the key to knowing, But not all emotional learning comes from knowledge Thinking sorrows and the answer lies It changes with each person, That is confusing But one thing is that a key of learning is Listening to each other’s words, And that people that needs to be listened to Like to hear the simple less things and that softness of words The gentleness of hope never needs questioning What is a Mother’s Love?
