A DISCARDED JEWEL

A poem on how a child feels after being abandoned by her mother..Tons of questions with no one to answer...

There are days, when I wonder

Wonder where you are

Wonder where you went

Leaving me alone to defend

 

I hope you would come, every single day

A day is not easy to pass by,

I wish you would just come and say

Oh! My cupcake come here, don't worry

I know am late, I am so very sorry

When mama is here nothing to fear

My teddy bear, you are my dear

 

I wish you were there, In my childhood

Lulling me to a treacle chocolaty dream

A hope that you would buy me new toys

When, I did better than I could fare

The hope still throbbing in my heart,

Even after those precious years apart.

     

I wish you were here to comfort

Saying darling love, but never hate

The agony in my heart a part of me

Reminding me of a banshee

Why mama, Did you leave such everlasting pain

With no one to lean on to, or anything to gain

 

Oh Mama! What was your reason

To dump your newborn child

Oh Mama! why could you not take me along

Was, I a trouble even though so small?

How I wish you were here with me today

We could have stayed together

Forgiving each other, No need to betray

 

Today, I have every thing in my life

Except, a sense of completeness

A solitude resting deep in my heart

Reminding me of a wandering soul

That has neither pulse, nor a beating heart

No tears of blood, or happiness to depart

My wish for you is still the same

May you come home, safely putting an end

To this Heart-wrenching game

I have no words to describe how I feel right now. We know about babies being adopted out , we here about babies being left in hospitals or on doorsteps. But as a daughter whose mom was always there I cant even imagine what that baby feels like as he or she grows up. Very compelling and emotional write.. shallimarRose
