Mother's Touch Sob

For your touch I sob
Pain on my heart
As I wish you were here
To love and protect me
From this cruel world
 
All I am left with
A vague memories of you
Hoping I had shared more time
For vivid you would remain on my mind
As I continously sob to know you

For time was a thief
For it never afforded me
A chance to know you
Only awarding me dreams
Of how it feels
To have a mum

Everytime I see
Other kids get warm embrace
From their mum's
I always feel
Like I'm left out
Alone to nurse the pains of this world

All I ever wanted was
To feel your love and care
To hear your empowering advice
To feel your embrace
To hear your reassuring words
In this cruel world we live in

But you left me sobbing
With a vague memory of you
Alerted at a tender age
That life ain't easy
For cruel was the world
As it played
It's number on me
Exposing me to the cold
