Fall

You were falling from the top of a nowhere. 

Screaming at the dark to break, 

Almost without a voice. 

Your eyes clenched, 

and released the dark,

at the same time.

Chasing a no name and running away from it.
At the same time. 

You felt it was your last.

The fear of loss exhausted your breath.

But right before the final thud 

You were pulled by a tiny hope.

You mustered all your strength 

And opened your eyes.

That feeling of immense relief,

A sigh and it was just a long scary dream. 

Your mother was by the bedside

Her presence calmed you

Little will you ever know

Of her fears and sores 

Her endless wakeful nights

Since forever

Yet she always smiled.
More and more.
