The Fall of Shadow
Sep. 16th, 2010 06:42 pmSleeping in the shadow created by me and the nightlight
Heavy and warm
Soft and beautiful
Delicate, fragile, resilient, strong
Effervescence finally at rest
Ecstatic joy, utter frustration
Tears, laughter
The hardest thing
As common as stars in the sky
Trusting
Mine, theirs, ours, hers, no one's
Sleeping in the shadow created by me and the nightlight
Sometimes one succumbs to the sentimentality of motherhood.
