Mama

 

"Mama!?"
What you mean you don’t remember?
i done told you 25 times
since last September?

"Mama!?"
What you mean you don’t recall?
All the times i picked you up…
After you had a fall?

"Mama!?"
Why you keep screaming at me?
All i was asking you was
how many lumps of sugar you want in your tea…

"Mama!?"
What do you mean "Who are you?"
Don’t you remember I’m the smart one
who always helped and told you what to do…

"Mama!?"
Where have you gone?
Why does it feel like a stranger
when you hug me in your arms?

"Mama!?"
Now i realize you are long gone
i keep you in my memory
and sing your favorite songs…
