Mum

I talk with my mum.
She talks about her mum.
Mum has the tear in her eye,
The brittle voice, the trembling lips, the shaking hand.
I don't understand.

My mum died.
I talk with my daughter.
I have the brittle voice, the trembling lips, the shaking hand,
The constant struggle for control, control, control.
Emotions.

My daughter does not understand, yet.
