The night is my mother
Holds me, calms me
Listens and doesn't judge
Knows my secrets
Doesn't tell
Whispers sweet advice in my ear
Brushes aside my hair
I can hide in the silk folds
Of the shadows the night brings
I'm okay in her embrace
I can wipe my tears knowing
That she won't mind
If only my biological mother
Could see
That her words sting me
Put tears in my heart
Push me farther away from her
Makes me want to leave
Permanently
From this world
From my life
But the nights motherly caress
Spares my ebbing life
Holds me, calms me
Listens and doesn't judge
Knows my secrets
Doesn't tell
Whispers sweet advice in my ear
Brushes aside my hair
I can hide in the silk folds
Of the shadows the night brings
I'm okay in her embrace
I can wipe my tears knowing
That she won't mind
If only my biological mother
Could see
That her words sting me
Put tears in my heart
Push me farther away from her
Makes me want to leave
Permanently
From this world
From my life
But the nights motherly caress
Spares my ebbing life
Wrote this when my mom had made me feel so bad I considered the thought of not living,
I love her but it seems like she doesn't , maybe she does , I don't know. But I thought about sitting beneath the stars alone with no hateful comments
And I realized that was to valuable to lose
