I Cannot Imagine


I can imagine a life without water

I can imagine a life without food

But to imagine a life without my mother

its the worst thing I could do

I feel a hole in my heart

I feel my lungs without air

I can feel my body weaken without her love and care

Her words give me fuel

To keep on fighting for the future

To live without water is easy 

To live without food is breezy

But to live without my mother....
