Mother
Mother
Life would be so much fun;
It would be about everything good;
Only myself and you - our own perfect hood.
All this You told me while I was still in You;
You made me feel happy, safe, cuddled;
You took care of me; kept me bundled.
So when I was presented to You finally;
You caressed me; made me feel blessed;
You fed me like no one ever would; even if you were stressed.
You taught me my first words;
Helped me while I stumbled taking my first steps;
Took me to your lap whenever I asked for, no matter what and how it gets.
While I had fun and enjoyed all the mischief;
You waited anxiously for me at the gates;
Nothing felt more Heavenly than running to You always at the end.
All this while as the years went by;
You kept reaching out for me - as I kept drifting. Why?
And now we are eventually thousands of miles apart;
Yes life is good now; it is all comfy;
I have everything with me; Almost.
How I miss You embracing me;
How much I would like to jump into Your lap again;
Feel safe – just like the day we first met;
I think You already realize all of this;
Just that it took me, an eternity to understand, please.
I am sorry that I grew up so fast and kept you probably at last.
I know though, You will always forgive me;
Waiting for me and never question me.
No matter how much I slither-
Guess that's why you are a Mother.
