Am I A Mama's Boy? Poem by Mahfooz Ali

As youngsters, we see a mama's boy,
as a bad thing,
Even though she sees and treats you like her little king.
Knowing the poisons of the world, she hopes you won't go astray,
So she guides you,
As she sees you make some wrong decisions,
when she corrects you, hopes there is no division,
between you & her, she just wants you to do right,
When she yells at you, its guidance being expressed,
and hates every minute, all she wants is the best,
for her little king,
to grow up as a man.
To one day have a family of his own, and do all that he can.
Mama knows all things, that we have said and done,
and finds us when we hide,
and catches us when we run.
Today I have learned,
that I am a mama's boy till the day I die,
and even after then,
She will protect me from and in the sky....
