Once in a certain time
Things went fast
With my own two eyes
I saw you lying on the ground

Pale, dull skin of yours
Your lovely brown eyes
turned into a blank stare
With wires entangled in your neck

With a blurry sight
I ran unto you, Mom
Hoping you'll return
Still, I can't let go of your cold hands

Our last talk I grieve
Trembling from shock
Confused with these things
I can't put into words

Why must it be you?
Things should've been better
With lonely soul of you
Still linger through me

How do one lose another?
When one already lost itself
Can't I take the blame
and reason empty words

I'll never grasp your reason
for leaving us at once
I'll talk to you again, Mom
When we meet in another time.
It's for my friend's mother who passed away.
