At eight years old I saw my mum grow down At nine years old I witnessed her in hospital At ten years old She forgot my birthday At eleven I could not comprehend or fathom The words to express How I feel I watched my mum blossom Only to wilt I could fix a summer draught With the tears I refuse to cry At seventeen years old I still cannot gather those words

Growing up
At eight years old I saw my mum grow down At nine years old I witnessed her in hospital At ten years old She forgot my birthday At eleven I could not comprehend or fathom The words to express How I feel I watched my mum blossom Only to wilt I could fix a summer draught With the tears I refuse to cry At seventeen years old I still cannot gather those words
