Mother and Daughter, It's about the time you feel safe and loved in the world... Dearest Mother Dearest Mother, how I really miss you, my spirit pains me, that a part of me has truly died. I will always feel like I'm without a home. You went with God, I felt good for you. but, I felt alone amongst many. I wanted, tried to be the person you wanted me to be. I failed in my trials of peace, caring of from the heart. Through my anger at authority and some of the ways of the world, I missed what is truly important in life, love. I remember the old worn out shoes and the one and only dress you had to wear, while you dressed me in all new clothes. how you would watch me walk to school, and always waiting , watching me walk home. Why couldn't I absorb your love, your impecability. To return to you when I had the chance. Now, I feel guilt inside and I know your love wouldn't want me to feel this way.. If I could stop the world from turning, I would of wrather stopped myself, and found the time to say "I love you Mother" Always you tried to control my anger and frustration towards the world with your love, always you found time for me, always gave your all to me. I was always chasing fame, to caught up in trying to be one of a kind. When I was born from you, apart of you. See me now, hear me now, I'm alone, if I could say one thing to the whole world I would like to say " go be with the ones who love you, as who you hold close to your heart, express your love, even if it's as simple as to say, I love you". Peace... Devon H.C. Crutcher 1997
