Please come back, Mother
Latrell Hicks Mar 2021
Please come back, Mother

To the first lady I loved; My mother dear.
For your smile and caress-I yearn.
Nothing in my life; has ever been more clear.
Oh, what would I do for your return.

Please remember me, every now and then.
I still remember the songs you would play;
Dreaming for our house to be happy again.
Do you even remember me; pleading for you to stay?

You are the mother I loved;
But not the mother I had
You said that "When you wake up, I'll be with you."
But when I woke up; That's when I learned the truth.
Personal

— The End —
