Mother!



Have been mistreated, said he
I have never been.
Love mistreats everyone
Betrayals are lead in the name of love
So wounds and injuries.
Walking to nowhere,
People happy looking all around
Seeking happiness in their faces
Happiness is selfish,
Happiness is greedy,
Happiness is racist,
Happiness is dishonest,
Happiness is fatal.
What kind of life is this?
Today is her birthday,
I guess that’s what made my day
The St Valentine’s day
What a coincidence!
She, well, they are celebrating
Her first beyond-forty anniversary
With her first made child away
I am her first made child ever
They are celebrating,
Their death-destined love: couples!
Ain’t about gifts, ain’t about birthday cakes
It is about the gathering.
And the surprise, the astonishment on her face,
Her tear-filled eyes,
That I am now crying.
Mother cares!
Mother watches!
Mother keeps!
Kisses, hugs, true feelings never fade
Hugs, true feelings, Kisses never die
True feelings, kisses, hugs never diminish
As long as she does not
As long as she would not
As long as she will not
Mother fears!
Mother sacrifices!
Mother prays!
Father, keep her!
Father, protect her!
Father, take after her!
Sis, neither I, would
She would!
Give all what she has
Mother earth, Mother land, Mother tongue
Mothers!
