Mum
Today, when I woke up, my mum was not there;
Today, when I got ready for work, I thought
I heard a voice from behind
son drink a glass of milk will keep you active in a day,
When I turned back no one was there; just an empty room.
There was a time in a life, when mum used to feed me,
Now no one is there to ask me did you had your breakfast, lunch and dinner
Without mum, life has become useless,
When I used to feel that I am losing my success;
Mum used to motivate & encourage me
Today when I graduated, my picture was incomplete though I was holding a certificate but the woman behind my success was not there anymore;
My clothes used to be stain free and nicely ironed by mum;
Now, my clothes look like map of a country.
