Panacea

I sometimes miss people whom I've never known
I miss dreams that have long been gone 
I miss long talks with others, and time alone
I miss peace, understanding, a clean clear home.

At night when I lie down to rest all my aches
I think of how strange it will be to wake
some future morning and wash my face
and find all my belongings still in their place.

I might feel at peace, I may feel relief
I might feel lost and filled with grief
as my children grow up and drift apart
and slowly break their mother's heart.

But if they all grow up to be
true to their virtuous selves I see
my labors will not have been in vain
and this mother's heart be whole again.
