that moment puts tears in her eyes
when your tiny limb of flesh and bone
catches her own finger
she gives you a peck on the forehead so full of joy
nothing could sever the connection
it's permanent and perfect and wonderful
hugs are tighter than any cocoon
comfort is more reassuring than the finest sheets
touches are more pleasant than breathing winds
you say you're not worthy of her love
that's it's too precious and beautiful
to break over again
but you are treasure to her
the flicker bringing dawn after the darkest of nights
an innocent pearl who won't be given up
it tries to pull you away from her
an army of icy blades
tugging on every possible string
but she's Mother Nature
with a rosy heart
and claws made of thorns
my mother is my safe haven
nothing could defeat that high wall
one cracked under a bed of fury
you mess with me
you mess with her
