Ummi (mother)

my still painful ordeal

Please No CSS

Ummi (mom)

 

Sometimes I think that it has been so long since your departure

I actually lived more years without you than with you

Even though I had to accept the unspeakable pain I went through

I ventured into stages of life and had since mature.

 

Ummi words will not be enough to tell you how much I miss you

I remember your sweet smell forever in me imprinted

The cuddles of your arms where I felt protected

Your beautiful smile brightening my horizon renews.

 

I was not finish loving you ummi!

As I grew up more and more, learning to know you

I felt getting closer and closer … step by step … I had walked a few

I wanted to become your closest ally so you could rely on me.

 

I wanted to protect, help and take care of you one day

As you had spent so much of your time caring for me and my siblings

Your only girl I was and connected to you even in my dreams

I was going to be there for you… undertaking your relay.

 

My tears are still flowing for you from my broken heart ummi

As you left suddenly, a tear ingrained in my soul

I cannot resolve the unfinished puzzle

As if that fateful day, you had left with a piece of me.

 

I will forever love you …you’re the sweetest ummi

What a beautifully sad tribute to one so very dear. You did a wonderful job with this write even though I know it had to be terribly painful for you. I feel for you my friend, I lost my mother not so long ago and still feel the pain as if it were just yesterday. She lived a long life yes, but like you, I was not ready to lose her, I don't believe I ever would be. You put your heart and soul into this poem and it shows with all the feeling you exposed. I could feel your pain. Again a wonderful tribute and so heartfelt, you leave me with tears....

Are we ever finished loving our parents? They could live a thousand years and that would not be enough for us. I like your poem because it's apparent it came up from the heart and onto your paper. It is filled with very deep and real emotions.
