Let me sing you a lullaby, Dad
I know you are with Mum
But we haven't talked much
I think of you every day
Let me recite this poem, Mum
Even though, you might not understand
I want you to acknowledge my pain
Missing Mum and you hurt me so
It's torture looking at yr picture
But I can't look away or throw them out
All I can do is weep
As the the tears form an ocean of sorrow
I am drowning in grief
