Estranged

Her day was filled with love

Two hands in hers.

Those hands she’d nurtured

Every day for years.

And yet,

This day,

This happy day

Was hard;

A day so full of smiles

And some tears;

Because she was a mother,

Loved by two

..But she, a child too

Who loved another;

Felt this day

The absence of her mother.

Her heart was full

And empty.

Happy.

Sad.

Today she longed

For love

She had once had.

    Absolutely heartbreakingly beautiful Pooky. My heart goes out to you. There is so much about love today a lot of the time the sheer pain for some is missed. Bereavement takes many forms and I know yours could end but til then…. love, hugs x
