Mom, I Am Still Your Girl

The world says,” Mom is always beside”. Oh mom! When I need you, where do you hide? The world says, “Mom is a child’s best friend.” Oh mom! Why, you couldn’t comprehend? To my childhood, your presence was ecstatic. But I miss a mom, who has never been emphatic. I left the house, which I thought was mine! Still had a trust, maybe you chose my affine. Believing that the bond with you would stay entwine! I was married, I was reborn, Never imagined, still this life would be forlorn. I looked back for your presence. Still standing alone! A new family! Everyone belongs to you, And you belong to none! Though I had everything, But your tender hand has forever gone! Today, when I look at my wrinkled hand, I realise how time slipped like sand. Waiting for you has been a vain. Still, I know! Someday, you will understand my pain. Up there in the graphite, I know you surely hide. People there need you more, It justifies, such a long reside! Whenever, you shall need me. Don't worry mom, I will be by your side!

Thank you for your kind words. Children without parents, live a lonely life. Its a difficult struggle for them.
