Cradle me to Sleep.

I opened my eyes and I saw you tired and exhausted,but I saw happiness in your eyes.You planted a kiss on my forehead and drowned in weakness.I was taken away from you and I felt lost and lonely.You cradled me to sleep but I was taken away by people with white masks.They pierced needles and covered me with things.I was frustrated and longed to be in your arms,Mama.But I knew something was wrong because I was in pain.You tried to make me smile but in vain.I saw the pain in your eyes but you hid it by just holding me tight.I remember touching you,mama-your soft cheek.But you were in tears.And I wondered why.I was taken away again and I saw you cry.But don't worry Mama.You gave me a year-a year of love,care and everything you could give.You gave me everything and I love you so much.You were in anxiety and pain.Pain.It was everywhere.I didn't want to see you like that,Mama.A year was enough.You gave me a lifetime in that one year.Thank you,Mama.I am up here-safe,without Pain.Content,watching over you.Yes Mama,I am watching over you.
