Chem. I lost my mother that day The sunshine in her eyes faded away Her smile no longer shined It became an acquired taste she no longer dined I lost my mother that month She only got out of bed once She cooked us dinner thrice, Still fulfilling her duties of mother and wife I lost my mother that year She shed her hair that dropped passed her ears Her eyebrows thinned, her lashes disappeared Whenever she cried, makeup no longer smeared Time elapsed and so did she She learned to fight and feel free Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall I didn't lose my mother at all
