Mum
Mum
I understand everyone shares a different story,
I can feel the pain one suffers,
Life can be easier if one neglects worries.
But my mind revolves around memories and I make my life tougher.
Each time I see a kid with its mother,
My heart whispers a question to me,
'Did your mum ever look after you like this?'
I become speechless and say 'I don't remember'
You are so far away,
How you are - I have no clue,
I wish you were with me,
What was my fault for which I lost you?
Oh! Mum, I feel forlorn,
Come and console me,
I weep like a child,
Come and heal me.
My life is incomplete without your presence,
I have no hope that I may be with you.
I smile but I cry tears in your absence,
Your love and concern in my life remains due.
