DEAR MOTHER
TIME OF THOUGHT:07:25PM
DATE OF THOUGHT:10:04:2011

How can  I tell it all
On your back lies the comfort I desire
And the sweet warmth of your arms at all time

From you I sucked the courage I needed to move on
Your affection is of no degree
And in your eyes I see my strength 

Mother, your presence is my pride
Your voice alleviates my fears
No doubt for your love

Surely mother, I will always love you
The vigil kept at my cranny is ever cherished
You are my heaven on earth.
