Stronger Love
by
Mollie Lyon
The adult child acts for
self.
The mother loves without
self.
The acts slam into her
heart.
The mother wonders will
the healing start?
The mother feels despair.
She's afraid to clear the
air.
Each instance digs a hole
more deep
Mother wonders why she
can't weep
She wonders why she can
sleep.
The secret comes
With the sun.
Mother's love never ends
The heart may break
But it mends.
Distance may grow
But child belongs
To the One above
The One containing a
stronger love.
So, she rests in that
thought
With Christ's love, they
were bought.
He'll fight tougher
He'll fight longer
After her arms hold no
more
His arms are stronger,
As is His love.
Hard to imagine
But there is a love
stronger than a mother's.
