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?
