Separation Anxiety...

My mom, or, ma, is a few states away. But I still need her and miss her sometimes....

An ode to moms--a belated Mother's Day.

Sometimes...you just want your mom.

If you were lucky, she comforted you when you felt like shit, no questions asked.

If you were lucky, she helped you see things clearly.

If you were lucky, she kicked your ass when you needed it (you know what I'm talking about).

If you were lucky, she held your hand and told you it'd be "okay" and that you could do it...

If you were lucky, she calmed you by rubbing your head when you had a nightmare.

If you were lucky, she stood back and let you become the person you should be.

If you were lucky, she still lets you call her "ma."

You are lucky---she is your mother and always will be.
