...Showed my greatest achivement to date...my drivers license...the day I turned 16...to Mom who lay in that hospital bed...
...she lay there for months struggling to have someone just untie her wings....
I think I got a smile...even in the depth of her pain...she always managed one for me...if only in her eyes....or her hand that squeezed mine...the most tender passage of message through skin I have ever known...so much deeper and meaningful than any sexual touch could ever ...touch.
I get quiet on Mothers day.
...and ...like all the heartfelt messages that pass on CHMB...feel the pain and oh...and oh ...the deep comfort...of people who can relate to yer CH...a deep message that only the squeeze of a Mom's hand can give...couple that with the comforting sparkle in her eyes that gave out their last ounce of sparkle....
I get quiet on Mom's day.
I love my mom....she taught me to care and share thru pain...and find something to laugh at...everyday.
