She watches her from a distance, scared that she will break.
Seeing her cry is cruel, she wishes that on no one.
I wish I knew what was wrong.
She came to her earlier, and was fine.
But yet when she saw her, she cried.
I wish I knew what was wrong.
She soothed her like she should, yet she cried.
She asks what was wrong and still she cries.
I wish I knew what was wrong.
She worries when she walks away.
She worries….
When she flies away, like she should…
Will she be ready?
Will she cry, or beg her to stay?
Will she know she loves her?
Will she know
that she will be alright?
Or that I will be alright?
And with the last look she wishes…..
I wish for her happiness,
Like every Mother should.
