“Oh, Mother”

The following is dedicated to my wonderful and beautiful mother

Mom, I love you, always

Oh, Mother, thank you for keeping me safe and secure

Oh, Mother, thank you for loving me

Oh, Mother, I must leave now

My son, you cannot leave

But why, Mother, I wish to be free

My son, what do you seek in this freedom

Mother, I want to know myself

I understand, son, but you cannot know yourself until you know me

What, Mother, what, who are you

My son, I am love

Oh, Mother, I see

But if I leave, and only you are love, will I still know love, will I still have love, will I ever know myself

My son, you are part of me, so you are the love that I am

Oh, Mother, I understand now, I am you and you are me

Wonderful, my son, now you truly see

Leave now, for you have found the self you have been seeking

Go forth and carry this love that I am and the love that you are, for we are one

Give this love to all others, and all will be one and free

Oh, Mother, thank you
