Embellished Doll

a lullaby fell on the chin of mine
it had the symphony of memories
that plunged me in to her arms
yes my mother.
she plundered my sorrows
and poured in to her throat,
it throttled her,stifled her
but a smile pervaded her face
she plunged in to mirage
yes,i placed her as my slave
as she opened the windows for me
just like a stream i flowed
till i reached the valley of silence.
she overturned my interpretation.
about the world and existence.
she put me on her lap
and hugged me a lot.
she sprayedme with the beauty of love,
as i crafted the word mom in me.
my enchanted doll with life restricted
has been taken away from me.
by someone to some unknown land
to join the almighty hand in hand
