Sometimes The Empty Spaces Of Life One Can Never Fill…(Mom) Poem by Steph Rodricks

MOM, a small word yet a significant meaning in life,
Haven’t given a thought all this while…

When I fall and face the blue,
That’s when I can’t stop thinking about you…

Your love unconditional,
Your care unimaginable
Without this, a part of me feels so miserable..

Try to search this in every person I can,
And I know you may be thinking how stupid I am….

The first time I left you wasn’t easy for me,
And so I don’t want to come back
Thinking how the second one would be.

I held my tears when I left you mom,
Thinking if id cry you too would cry along..

But I can no longer hold my tears…,
Knowing Id only get to see you after some years.

Miss you when I’m back from work,
Miss you when I wake from bed,
I keep myself busy, avoiding these thoughts to come to my head..

But every time I try,
I fail miserably …..
And that’s when the days I cry uncontrollably..

No one can be as caring as my mom,
Cause even outsiders she makes them feel at home…

I can’t stop writing how wonderful you are,
I wish you were here- I keep thinking and that’s the hardest hour…

People around me make me miss you so much….
I thank them wholeheartedly cause if it wasn’t for them,
I’d not know you’re WORTH….
