Her Story - 1

i hold a spoon and feed her
for the very first time

i hold her hand tight
for she makes a step with her trembling body
for the very first time

i kiss her white soft cheek
and wrinkle on her brow
not so for the very first time

you'll be fine, you'll beat them up

the unspoken words left unsaid
still not for the very first time
: i love you, mom
