[To the Moon & Back]
Mom I know you care,
but sometimes this life just seems so unfair —
to the point that it’s really hard for even me to bare,
but I wouldn’t dare change a thing about being under your wing..
You mean the world to me,
you’re the roots of my tree,
it’s so clear now to see,
how being a part of you
has shaped me to be..
My experience with you has carried me through a renewed world view —
one that I never even knew I’d ever come into..
Due to you, I know it’s true that one day soon,
I’ll have to make do & move on,
from this displaced headspace where I don’t belong..
No matter what though, through all the peaks & troughs —
I know I’m strong as long as we harbor the weather together,
no matter the tethers or gestures of pressures..
Together we’re successors —
we’re song birds of a beautiful feather,
so treasured when our hearts are together
throughout our endeavors..
I’ll love you to the moon & back for the better of forever —
no matter the measures that need to be levered..
As we continue to be drawn upon a marathon
of twists & turns from life’s phenomenons —
the formula — the breakthrough — for me and you,
is to pursue an avenue where our rendezvous
can continue to be tried & true..
This safe space is the place we can continue
to keep calm & carry-on —
it’s a place of no wrongs,
it’s a place we’ll always be able to dance all night long..
This is the place where we best correspond —
a place now & forever we’ll always belong..
All my love to the moon & back,
Your daughter Tori
