ABANDONED
For a long
time, I kept him safe and sound,
From the
chaos of the world around.
As chills ran
down my spine,
I did
everything, to ensure he was fine.
Every step I
took, showered me with pain
But I
believed there would be a rainbow, after a stormy rain.
When I got to
feel him in my arm,
I got carried
away by his sweet charm.
His chuckle
washed away all my worries,
His tears
made his cheeks red as berries.
My heart used
to melt in the fire of love.
Days went by,
and I watched him grow.
All I wanted
was to see him live happily,
With me and
his new family.
But one day,
he left me on the road,
Saying, “I
can't take care of you anymore”.
I watched him
leave my life forever,
Forgetting I
was the source of his life.
I gave him my
heart,
Believing
only death would tear us apart.
Now, my son
has left me on the streets unknown,
‘Cause he doesn't want me to burden his life
anymore……………
