Oh, Mummy!

A million and half of a million of empty wishes,
Are the closest companions I always walked with,
I always procrastinated the time of true repentance,
It just never really seemed important to me then.

Mummy, how I wish I heard the words more clearly,
How I wish my ears could read between the lines,
Maybe I now wouldn't live by the curtains of my mind's framework,
Gazing at the falling and rising of my voiceless heartbeat.

Two times I have known you, four times I didn't know,
That the woman I called my mother was also an angel,
Sent from the Creator to prepare my unpredictable days,
And guard my every step from the ways I shouldn't go.

Mummy, can those times replay on the clock again?
I'll be ready this time to watch its hands move,
I'll listen only to the tick-tick-tick of its whispers,
If only those choicest times will replay on the clock again.

Oh, Mummy, how I wish I could reverse time and be with you once more;
How I wish I could hear the sweet comfort of your voice and receive your motherly direction,
Oh, Mummy, in your arms I found peace and protection,
If only I stayed under your wings, I won't be lost.

Oh, Mummy!

Thanks for reading my post.
