Mother

Don’t Leave me
Or my tremulous placenta
Feeding fevers I cannot draw

Mother
Open your hands
Stop crying
To lever the hurt
Drown your papery fate

Believe me
He is not a smile
His tongue has ashed you

Dressing your house stones
Irretrievable you have become
I am vacant without you
Terrified of your unraveling choice

Your merciless will
Disappoints me
But tonight they annihilate me

Foreseeing the color of your sleep
Is my fate Mother
You are my red material
The sea current of my veins

I am your parent
Your daughter
Your posturing friend

Has grief not kissed you plenty
I remember you gutsy
I remember your identity

I will launder your lips with no departure
Praise your face with health
With instruments of clarity

Reversing indecision for your dormant soul
From my fist to your fingers
Mother you are loved

Listen to the far sea in my ear
Lay your head there with us under the spumy bloom of our story

  1. This is such a beautiful poem… almost makes me teary. :)

    I dunno what it is but your face being in these pictures always seems to more express the emotions or give the poem or post more defined beauty. Just thought i’d say that.

  2. Hi,, Greeting to you.
    Its beautiful . may i add a poet for you?

    Mother …….
    You’re so beautiful, graceful charm
    Your loyal matchless

    Your breath is in me
    Your heart rate together in my heart
    Gently caress your silky
    Your loyalty not replaceable.

  3. Wow, it looks like a lyric to a heart wrenching song….so beautifully written….always in love with your pen, do sprinkle few drops of your creative ink on this side….

    “I will launder your lips with no departure
    Praise your face with health
    With instruments of clarity”
