Premiere Contest WinnerThe Ache of a Mother

The fading of sun symbolizes eternal darkness in my way Countless tears and immeasurable pain defines how I spend my lonely days Only God knows how I have seen my heavens go away the death of my only son infront of my own eyes Blood flows from my eyes in the form of tears The heart knows how it has seen the days turn into years My writings once so bright now only bleeds pain and are without any colour Today my heart is a poet and I am poetry in the form of an ache of a mother Desire burns inside me, a desire to hold my son in my arms To feel the warmth of his body just for once The body more familiar to me that my own soul How can I live without the person who made my incomplete life whole Yes Cursed was the night you answered the call of death On that day even the moon was afraid to show up The clouds couldn’t hold their tears, they also cried Even the two oceans combining in each other stopped their tides Sadness is in the fact that even after your death my life goes on How can I accept that my little baby is forever gone They say your spirit shall eternally reside in a place known as Eden Where you can have wings, unicorns and all sort of freedom Sometime walking on the empty roads or on others playing the waiting game Knocking the doors of happiness begging to catch a glimpse of my son’s face I am a gloomy lost soul filled with dejected pains and no particular aim A companion of sadness, with no permanent home or a resting place Come dark night, take me in your arms and let me cry The deep ocean hidden with in the veil of eyes will flow Such is the intensity of the pain from all the years ago That the night herself shall be completely washed away The night of my sadness shall never see its dawn Neither shall this dark moon ever shine again For despite putting me in this place and showing me her bitter taste death it appears (in my case) doesn’t seems to know any haste Come O angels, let it be of heavens or hell Take me away to a dark and a lonely cell So that the people can’t hear the sound my tears make Such pain is hidden with in that it will force the mountains to shake The rain of my tears shall never find its rainbow Neither shall the sky of my life ever find a sunny day For this old body(despite being alive) has already started to decay Soon like a wind this breath will blow and yet no one will ever know

"The ache of a mother" is portrayed with such dramatic poignancy drawing the reader inside the heart, soul and psyche of her inconsolable pain. Your potent emotional pen is both intimate and powerful. A striking metaphoric and moving beauty, Faraz. Congratulation on your golden trophy win. Warmest wishes always.. ~Susan
