You have been long gone,
resting in Earth’s lap
I am all alone.
Not a moment lived
without missing you.
I hear you call me,
my eyes search for you.
I end up dismayed
As it is not you,
it’s the voice within.
I am still alive
For, I am breathing.
It’s not oxygen
It’s your memories
which keep me going
I am vexed with God
He chose you, not me
Does He not know that
without you, my child
my life’s just a void
When will the time come?
When I can hold you,
kiss you, caress you
and hear your sweet voice
call me “Ma” again
