The moment I came into this world,
they cut the cord that tied me to you.
They said, “The baby is separate now.”
But how could they know
that I had never known
a world without you?
I was suddenly alone
no longer wrapped in your warmth,
no longer listening to the rhythm
of your heartbeat beneath mine.
I could not speak,
I could not reach for you,
I could only cry.
And then I heard your voice.
your voice was home.
Your touch became my shelter,
your heartbeat,the first music
my frightened soul remembered.
The cord was gone,
but something deeper had begun.
I learned your face
before I learned the world.
I learned your arms
before I learned to walk.
I learned your smile
before I understood happiness.
When I was hungry,
I searched for you.
When I was afraid,
I reached for you.
When I fell,
I looked for you
before I looked at my wound.
my first universe
my comfort, my courage,
my safest place,my mom .
Years passed.
I learned to walk away from you,
to make my own choices,
to build a life of my own.
But inside me
that little child remained,
still searching for her mom
whenever the world became too loud.
The invisible cord
was never cut at all.
And perhaps that is what
a mother and child truly are!!
For the world may call me
a grown child…
But in your presence, Mom,
I am still that little one
who first opened his eyes
and searched for you.
