“I don't like feeling
Anything but
Love
About my mum

It doesn't feel right

But right now
I feel
So many
Things
About my
Mum

I feel love
Always love
But underneath
I feel sad
And a little
Disappointed
I feel worried
And anxious
And mostly
I feel
Distant

Like someone grabbed us
Each of us
And pulled and pulled
Until there was a gap
Where there's never been a gap
Until there was
Distance
Where usually
We were
Together
Side by side

Like someone
Pulled us apart
And I'm afraid
I'm afraid
That that person
Was me”
