Remembering Mom
Mom
is one who first
understood the reason of your cry
Mom
is one who first
knew how to calm you after cry
Mom
now that you are no more
I have stopped crying
Tears
other construe as weakness
I have stopped correcting them
Tears
now I direct inwards
as in soul you reside
Mom
you still calm me
when drop touches you inside
Mom
with you in me
how can I ever be weak?
