Analysis of Mother
From a seed dropped
in a pool of blood stopped,
A journey of life within you
Commenced to begin to…
Become everything that is now me,
Decades perspective allows to see.
It all started and started to end with you;
As you started so it shall finish too.
Twenty years past, feels like yesterday;
Gotten used to the absence and bitter that stay.
I wish there had been another way.
To return color when you turned the world gray.
Shades of a shadow;
That’s all that does remain;
Allow that vision does follow
Till the day we meet again.
