Mother

Mother, dear mother
How I miss you
The wink of an eye
Our secret signal
The most beautiful smile I’ve ever seen
My protector
My Heart
My friend
I cry for you
I long to be with you again
I am missing a part of me
Since you went away
I have never felt pain
Like this before
I can’t catch my breath
You were my breath
Dear Mother
