Mother's Call

A tribute to my grandfather's mom who left him when he was born.

Mother's Call

sometimes really early
mom you said goodbye
I was too young
too young to even cry,
you left my hands
just when I opened my eyes
why did you left me so early
even without teaching what was life
you didn't held my hand
to tell me how to crawl
mom you don't know how many times did I fall
you never came to wipe my tears off
was I that bad
that you didn't stay with me for long.
every time mom you know,
when grandma told me tales
I imagined you like the fairy in all those fairy tales
sometimes you existed
somewhere long back
but for me you were an illusion
of the portrait that I had.
mom you don't know how much the world has teased me by your name
you don't know I did even chase some shadows thinking that I would find you somewhere down the lane
that's what's called a mother's Call
even though she is nowhere at all
it's the child who search's for her smell in the curtains.. pillows and all
ohh mom that's called mother's Call 😊

I enjoyed your Poem, greatly,
I lost my mother almost 40 years ago
and just yesterday, thought I saw her
standing in the lane of a grocery store.
that feeling of emptiness never goes away
Keep writing

Oh my... this is beautiful!!! Emotional!! I read it all the way through, and I teared up many times tbh.
I could feel the pain that the son/daughter had for wanting their mother back... you expressed it really well!! This is a very good read!
