Paige Brackins Poet Ghazal

Where Did You Go

All of the angels call, 
as they mourn for the one's that fall.
And its been so long,
since you've been gone.

I cant believe its so hard
for me to let go of the years 
that I hold iniside of me.
The memories, the 
childish games you would play with me.

Mama, where did you go. 
Why did you leave us all alone.
And how could it be so,
that you could leave us behind,
And just forget about us all this time.

I dream that you are here,
and you tell me that it will be alright. 
You hold me tight, sing me a lullabye,
and tell us goodnight.

Mama, you left us for good.
Me and her to survive on our own, 
and now she's even gone.
So as I hide in my world,
and I bury this all deep inside.
I run and try to find someone to 
play those games with me,
but theres no one in sight.

So here I am, almost grown,
so afraid I cant make it on my own.

And all of this seems like a dream,
Or I'm in a movie scene.

So Mama, come make this right,
and tell me good night.
