Being

Being

For the best reasons
We become parents.

The meaning of life is to make better things,
To live it fully.

They grow and away,
Too often on the other side
Of age’s divide.

We didn’t choose this, the refrain
From their view.

We have a slice of our hearts
Cut from us every moment
We care.

Love doesn’t count the losses
Nor the fights nor the mistakes.
Sanctuary is parenthood,
Always open.
