I Remember
When you came to tuck me in at night
The scent of fresh sheets puffing air at my face
And tugging my toes
As you pulled them to my chin
Your fingers poking my body
tickling as you packed tight
Your beloved boy
Warm in his cocoon
Your lean
As you placed your prayerful loving kiss
On my forehead
Leaving its heart to guard my sleep
I love you really
I just forgot how to
Now I remember
I'm home so don’t worry or miss me
Know this love is real
For you and I
A mother and son
The hardest places to go are the places you heal most
