Madonna and Her Boy

by @mikel

You’ve been a naked newly born Mama rejoice while you mourn Birth pain turned to joy Hearing the doctor saying, “he’s a boy.” Time flies as you started to walk Learned to speak a few words to talk Your selfishness and fragile life She protects with sleepless nights She molds you in her own way Until you grow enough to go astray You’re loved yet felt owned After what she’s done, she’s now alone Mama got old and can’t say a word You visit her from your troubled world Letting the silence speak words You’re not that old, yet can’t say a word Weeping for the joy you can’t define Mama’s pain dissolved through the tears in her eyes After years playing your own toys You’re still your Mama’s Boy
