I wrote this poem after I left home for school this January. Mother, this is especially for you. I miss you!

Vexing my mind is this deafening silence;

My once active self is now going pathetic,

I tried to stop it,

But my heart cries in violence;

I am now a stranger

In this known environment.

The mango trees are standing still,

And I no more see their leafy arms sway in the air;

Am I not used to this kind of view?

Why in this place I feel so anew?

My stomach reached its fill,

As I sipped my cup of chocolate;

But my heart is hungrier,

For the one who made me sleep so late

I am longing for your hug’s warmth,

Though, the weather is so hot

I can’t help myself of being sad;

I miss you so much and I am going mad

How I wish I didn’t have to be far;

Hope I could pack my things and go back

To where you are,

Mother, seeing you made me happier;

But, leaving you at home is much

A heartache to bear.
