My tears are now all dried up,

Bared emotions are all covered up,

Under the sheaths of worldly chores,

Silent grief still bubbles within my core.

╚⏤⏤⏤⏤╗❀╔⏤⏤⏤⏤╝╚⏤⏤⏤⏤╗❀╔⏤⏤⏤⏤╝

I have done nothing that’s nearly special,

In this existence weighed in morsel,

I just created a purpose, my checklist,

Out of your unchecked bucket list.

╚⏤⏤⏤⏤╗❀╔⏤⏤⏤⏤╝╚⏤⏤⏤⏤╗❀╔⏤⏤⏤⏤╝

If I could clearly define my existence,

Clinging onto your scattered presence,

Dealing with this void, physical absence,

With blind faith in your divine essence.

╚⏤⏤⏤⏤╗❀╔⏤⏤⏤⏤╝╚⏤⏤⏤⏤╗❀╔⏤⏤⏤⏤╝

I know the order of life; it’s practical,

Runs on the track that’s mostly material,

Yet I seek for you, the very intangible,

In a true quest, not readily achievable.

╚⏤⏤⏤⏤╗❀╔⏤⏤⏤⏤╝╚⏤⏤⏤⏤╗❀╔⏤⏤⏤⏤╝

My heart, the belly of volcanic emotions,

Brews and spews my mental commotion,

The lava of sadness flows to burn my skin,

Yet hardens my texture in its brutal spin.

╚⏤⏤⏤⏤╗❀╔⏤⏤⏤⏤╝╚⏤⏤⏤⏤╗❀╔⏤⏤⏤⏤╝

A juggler of feelings and responsibilities,

Understands being with greater palpability,

As hardly there was an offer on expectations,

Or a free sale in the market of emotions.

╚⏤⏤⏤⏤╗❀╔⏤⏤⏤⏤╝╚⏤⏤⏤⏤╗❀╔⏤⏤⏤⏤╝

All I can do for now is to hang on,

Catch up with time and try to move on,

Yet I will walk in the past to see you,

As I still can’t imagine my life without you!

Dedicated to by dearest, sweetest, loveliest mommy, my everything!
