Mum

Mum please come

MUM

I understand everyone shares a different story,

I can feel the pain one suffers,

Life can be more easier if one neglects worries.

But my mind revolves around memories and I make my life tougher.

Each time I see a kid with her mother,

My heart whispers a question to me,

'Did your mum ever look after you like this?'

I become speechless and say 'I don't remember'

You are so far away, 

How you are - I have no clue,

I wish you were with me,

What was my fault for which I lost you?

Oh mum I feel forlorn, 

Come and console me,

I weep like a child,

Come and heal me.

My life is incomplete without your presence,

I have no hope that I may be with you.

I smile but I cry tears in your absence,

Your love and concern in my life remains due.

this is extremely expressive i can feel the longing for a mother and pain of such an absence from the way you have expressed. It's painfully beautiful. i believe this is your best work yet

[Najam Us Saher]

"A kid with "its" mother"....I'm pretty sure that's supposed to say His/Her.

Other than that, I really like the concept in this poem because I can identify with the absence of a steady mother figure.

Overall, this was very touching.

[Najam Us Saher]

Thank you so much I am glad you liked it. I'll just correct the mistake.

A very lovely and beautiful poem filled with emotions and attachment of a child for his/her mother, whose mother is away from him/her. Every reader can feel the pain and sorrow that you have penned in this poem. I can understand your pain in every line that coming from the depth of your heart. These lines are heart-touching:
"My life is incomplete without your presence,
I have no hope that I may be with you.
I smile but I cry tears in your absence,
Your love and concern in my life remains due."
Thank you for sharing such lovely and emotional poem. Keep writing. :)

Very touching one, Najam..
Your poems are always very thoughtful and filled with emotions. No one can fill the mother's place in our life...that emptiness is a horrible feeling..
It feels great to read your poetry :-)

Todays pregnant women tend to abort their children and not even give them a chance to live. Others have little choice in being able to keep a child when to young or unmarried. Some women just have the natural mother's instinct. Valentine

[Najam Us Saher]

You are absolutely correct. It is a bitter truth.

[Threads]

I think this is something that anyone who has drifted away from or lost their mothers can relate to. Definitely a powerful piece, left its mark on me at least.
