Mother, Please Come Back... Poem by jessica ng kai lun

Mother, please come back
why did you have to go?
The days without you really make me gag
without you with me, my feelings are really low
I cannot describe my feelings when i saw you leaving at the dock
at that moment, my heart sealed with a lock
my face streamed with tears
because i knew i would never see you again
how i wish father didn't engulf in beer
they you wouldn't have gone to the mainland
But mother,
why couldn't you have taken me along?
Would i be a bother
will i prolong
your pain?
The tears keep falling like raindrops
i couldn't do anything but hop
Maybe i am the burden
afterall, i was with only 1 leg
but you shouldn't have left in a sudden
casting me aside like a rag
Mother, will you come back for me
Or will you have a new life in glee
and leave me to strive
for myself?
Mother, please come back...
