He's leaving tomorrow
Far from her lap
To a new country, a new place
A new society, a new world
Her heart is heavy, eyes are wet
Thinking about who will be there now
To wipe off his sweat
She's staying there alone
In a dark room
Cherishing his memories, carrying
A tee-shirt in her hand
With his smell on it
She wants to hold him and never let him go
But it makes her sad, remembering she can't do so
Slowly, the door opens and he's there
Comes near and wipes her tears
Saying
Don't worry maa, I'll be back soon
In your lap again, with you for life
And she hugs him,smiling at his fake promises
Cause she knows that
Returning back to her lap will be never
Her son will now be a guest to her
Forever!!!
