Elizabeth Bohn Poet Free verse

Mama Please

You used to hold me
Kiss my cheeks 
Love me without any hate
Feed me sliced grapes

I don’t remember those days
I find memories I buried 
Locked up to keep 
My love for you 
How do I bury them again
Mama tell me please

How do I forget the hate you have for me
As you throw a vase 
Screaming away
I will never feel the same

You used to wash my hair
And tell me what to wear
You used to take me 
To the playground 

I want to remember only these days
How do I remember only these days
Mama
Mama please

Kiss my cheeks again
Soothe me to sleep
I’m still your baby
Please love me 

I’m still your baby
Love me like you used to
Throw the hate away
Let me sleep in your bed
Just for the night
Mama please
Please
