Endless Tear

It hasn’t been easy That you left is still a mystery I never knew you but from pictures Are you one or not of heavenly creatures? From a far smoke wails into the sky The knowledge of the burning bush makes me cry The village you could hold together is now scattered Mam! On top of my voice I request for your presence Why you neither seem to care nor pay a listening ear The absence of your motherly love tortures me The mansion in my sight is meaningless So incomplete without you Like a so-called forest without trees You left us in a shell too small to harbor us Where shall I find happiness Now that am a puppy without its bone Time took you away from us So many good stories of you embedded in my mind Death so wicked taking the standing pole But why did you choose to die on my birth bed? The day that’s to remind me of life Has nothing but terror polished from the inside
