Analysis of To my mama



To my mama

There is not a single day
That comes without your memories

Your assuring smile
The way you used to
Pull me in your hug
And say
‘It’s gonna be ok baby❤️‘

It’s been a long time
Since you left me
I see you in my kids smile
In a crisp morning
Colorful fall leaves
In a beautiful story I am reading

I know you are still alive
Within all the love around me
But the pain in my heart
Stays the same
