Silhouette

Emulation in the finest form.
On the worst days (most days),
the one and only true friend.
Until it follows the sun’s rays,
disappearing once again.

Alone to fend
The relentless demons (who always stay)
burrowing deeper
And deeper inside.
Some nights
There’s nowhere to hide.
Some nights
Miraculously transition to light.

Oh, one and only true friend,
What will this night bring?
Will you ever be seen again?
As the birds and trees sing?

Oh, one and only true friend
Don’t let this be the end.

Mother's Day

From the first kick in the womb.
To the last kiss upon your tomb.
You were the greatest mother,
And there will never be another.
Never another… 

Love you, Ma.
Happy Mother’s Day.
