Forgiveness
You are my life on my script life
every step and breath I take
reflect your motherly manner
tenderly touching me.
Even if I tried to break through
away from you,
I couldn’t resist your velvet lips
kissing me good night,
the smell of your hair
touching my soul,
your soft voice
calling me back home
when I was late…
I secretly adored your inner strength,
your patience,
your daily hard work
but I dared not admit
my love to you openly.
I kept your image in my heart
I kept your words as jewelry in my bag
I kept the echo of your laughter
a mystical whisper in my dreams.
I am saying now :
I loved you mum
but I couldn’t say that then.
You always knew it
but you never asked for it.
You were walking alone
carrying the solitude of love
deep in your breasts
all the way long till eternity
as waves carrying the sand
towards the ocean.
Still, I loved you.
