Stained

Her tear stained eyes

wept Ice droplets

Shades of periwinkle blue

Burr!

Her broken hearts

protective woolen blanket

was Itchy

And Pertubing

She could not

Wave off the irony

the Grains of Sand

From Life's hourglass

left her beyond bitter

No Potions

Lotion or well meant Emotions

Could mend such Disdain

another droplet fell

Shell

Harder on myself

Than most others

Mothers pass

Counsel gone

Looking inwards

Still focused on outside

I try to smile at myself

But it's a joke

Feels burdensome

Lonely but never alone

Existence

Resistance

Compliance

Contemplating My own Navel

Loving Your Shell

The Most Intangible of All

I watched You Un-age

Peeling off the age spots

Walking backwards

through time

Amazing Mage

Rebuking affliction

Untethered guilt

Like spiderweb

Unwinding and releasing

In every reversed step

Rites of passage revisited

Womb bound

Hello Mother

I am here

Let's go forward now

Again

Nodding

Brows Shadding

Pools you wanted to dive into

Something forbidden

Nights stars above

Every time I try to close My eyes

There they are Like memories

Carmel flecked Sundaes

Off limit

Foretold

Forebodden

Formidable

Another day

Here I go There You are

In front of me beside me

Eyes meeting Energy exchanging

Get out of my reach

Get out of my memories

Out of sight

Out of mind

Blink

Oh Those Eyes
