To His Mother
2.03.09
Two women -
Two women who've lost Him,
Lost Him once and for all.
You - through the pain of childbearing,
I - through cruelties of love...
Two women -
Two women who've lost Him,
So close and yet so far apart -
So uncompromisingly different
With the very same pain in their hearts...
And even though I may not know You,
Before You I'd stand in deep awe -
You gave me true Hope, always precious -
You gave me the man that I love...
[Dedicated to the Mother of my still beloved A.K...]
