My mother walked away from my life when I was just five years old. This is something I had written for her many years ago. She passed away before I could tell her my feelings.
You walked out of my life
Many many years ago
Not once did you turn back
Not even so say Hi
I long for you to hold me
To take me in your arms
There is so much to tell you
That happened when you were not there
I have grown up all alone
Unloved and uncared
I longed so much for your touch
I longed for you to show you cared
Mummy, today I have just one wish
Just once take me in your arms
And just tell me that you love me
Just tell me that you still care.
