And that Night I slept in Her lap

And Now I'm sitting next to her and I want to look at her with my eyes not moving to bits and my Heart Pounding. She went away for a long time, to be honest it was never long for someone else but for me, every second my watch stopped. I lived in her absence too, for she's the one who taught me how to be independent and that the world will never come to help you but to divert you. I'm who I am and she's the one who made it possible, the one who helped me add another word to the dictionary of my life,  "Independence". In these long days when life was moving at the speed of light, I had a nightmare about her but I never exposed the feelings I had after that. It was killing me inside for she wasn't sitting next to me. Now that she's with me, I'm calm and quite and still, for I love her the most.

Dedicated to my Mother.
