Conversation With Mama 2 Poem by Neeraj Kumar

HAVING CONVERSATION WITH MAMA.
MA I DON'T USUALLY CALL YOU AT NIGHT
BUT I COULDN'T KEEP MYSELF TOGETHER
I JUST WANTED TO HEAR YOUR VOICE

LATELY I'VE BEEN SO DEPRESSED
ALCOHOL, CIGARETTES BEEN DOING DRUGS
I DIDN'T DO IT CUZ I LIKED TO
BUT IN THE NAME OF BEING YOUNG

YOU SENT ME FAR AWAY, HERE
TO BECOME SOMETHING ON MY OWN
I HAD LOST MY PURPOSE FOR A WHILE
NOW I REALIZE I'VE BEEN DOING WRONG

ALL THE STRUGGLE YOU AND DAD HAS DONE, TO GET ME HERE IN THE CITY
I SWEAR I'LL MAKE THEM COUNT

I'LL BE BACK HOME SOON
BYE MA
