Dedicated to my mom, Late Mrs. Affiong Udofia
I am holding up a load
The burden is weighing in
How can I reach you?
How can I survive this through?
I smile outwardly from a wounded heart
I missed you every day that passes by
But I do not wish to stop
A mother caring as you do stands priceless
They say memories fade away over time
But this is different
Thinking of you makes me smile always
I would not forget you for eternity
Wish you could hold my hands again
Bring me to heaven with you, please
Without you, life is not the same
I do not believe love would ever walk away
I miss sitting at you back to the market
I miss the soft words you would say
To cheer me up when am feeling sad
I miss your warm hugs and kisses
The world may have forgotten
I know you are watching over me from heaven
Tonight, no matter how long it takes
I will wait for you by the window
I hope you will come back home
And stay for a little while
If God would permit it
I will rather prefer you stay forever
