I Long For Ma

I really don’t want People to know That I always long for you: mum Long gone in 2003 A day before my fourth birthday I long for you ma You are the best person whom I’ve ever known I love you But never had showed you I thank you for your love That you showed me For only a few years I don’t blame you ma God never gave you the chance It’s His own wish He wanted me to be termed” an orphan” I’m sorry to say this I only have three individual photos of you And only one where you have your bro.s and sisters But where are my siblings? I don’t have!! God never gave you the chance Why you ma.? Why?? Stabbed in the heart I was You turned a knife inside my heart And you still do But though dead I love you.

Hi Desire, thank you for leading me to this excellently crafted piece! This is really sad the loss of your beloved Mom! I feel your pain, my friend! It's a 7 in my books! Hugs, Pandita
