For Mam
I didn't know you were gone
A chill didn't creep in my bones
No unseen hand caressed my cheek
An angel did not appear
To bring comfort in my dark hour
And as I looked at the waxen form
Beliefs fell, shattered like broken glass
And a pain inside spoke that you were no more
My mind now wanders to your sweet smile
And the love unlimited like a bottomless well
And piece by piece
I glue back my beliefs from where they fell
Heart once pinned unable to beat
Now warms to your unseen shadow
Speaking to me silently
Attached to my soul
I now see you have never left
