Some days don’t break you loudly.
They just sit on your chest… quietly.
The house gets silent,
everything is finally done,
and yet you don’t feel at rest.
You feel… full.
Of thoughts. Of exhaustion. Of everything you didn’t say all day.
And in that moment,
you don’t need advice.
You don’t need solutions.
You just need… your mom.
Not because she’ll fix it,
but because somehow,
she makes it feel lighter just by being there.
It’s strange how life comes full circle.
How you become the one holding everything together and still find yourself needing the same voice
that once held you.
And maybe that’s what motherhood really is…
Carrying more than anyone sees,
so your child never has to feel the weight of it.
And one day,
they’ll understand too.
