mom
March 25, 2023
Mom,
The glue holding me together
The light at the end of the dark tunnel
An ordinary piece of coal
Beaten until the shining diamond was revealed
A surprise
It took years to find the real you
All we had to do was remove the extra layers
Me a flightless bird
You a soaring crow
Me the worst of you
You the best of me
We are each other
In different eras
At different points of time

Me and my mom never really got along but as I have grown up, we see each other from a different perspective. We learned to communicate and actually grow and connect. She has slowly turned into one of my favorite people.
