My Ail For Thy Presence
Mommy...you are not there
In my darkest hour
When I miss you
When I need you
To be my candle flame
To talk to me
To hold me
Mommy...you are not answering
When I call for you
When I reach out for you
When I look for you
To give me hope again
To love me once more
To find myself in you one more time
Mommy...you only show up when you possess the finite assests of this world
Only when days are sunny for you
When you have it all figured out
When life smiles at you and you smile back
To share your happiness
To make your light known
To show us how to piece it together too
But mommy...
I want you near all the time
I don't want you to keep disappearing when it gets tough for all of us
I want us to conquer it together
Just like the olden times
Only then, you could never leave me
Nor choose anybody else above me
