Mama, where are you?

I need you

to tie my shoes,

to help with homework,

to shop for clothes.

Mama, where are you?

I love you

because you hold me tight,

because you smile and laugh,

because you love me.

Mama, where are you?

I need you

to stop looking so sad,

to wake up,

to come back to me.

Mama, where are you?

I love you.

I need you.
