When you look at me, dry your eyes.
Your tears awaken intense emotions which I may have no control over.
Please do not care too much.
For one day you may wake up and I am no longer here.
Look at me, show me your smile,
For deep down I am still the person you got to know.
When you smile and say you will pray for me, remember I do not believe in your God.
For how can a loving God, the Almighty allow His children to suffer.
He who made heaven and earth is far out of reach...a phantom.
Yet, I plead, smile for I am still your mother, friend and daughter.
I'm just in pain, my pain, not yours.
Turn your back.
Please go now, for I might just bring you down with me.
