MEMORIES OF A TRUE LOVER.{AN ORIGINAL POETRY}

image source

Deep inside me,
I wish the time spent with her
Will be an endless one.
However, I was shocked to discover my wish is nothing but a fantasy.

Although every single minute spent with her
Is not always savoured with glamorous moment.
Nevertheless, all her actions are centered on nothing
but how I can become the cream of the society
in the nearest future.

She is my first love,
she is my refugee,
she used to be a companion
with no reason to let go of me
no matter how horrible the situation around me may be.

Dear mum,
though I thought nothing can separate us,
however, I was wrong.
I never knew death is seated at a corner making jest of me.
If I had known,
I would have done everything under my capability to prevent your death.

Though death outsmarted me,
but nothing can erase the memories of the time spent with you.
For I am yet to find anyone who loves me just like you do,
and I am certain that no one can love me the way you do.
I am seriously missing you mum.
