Love From Home

I'm sitting in my living room, mind preoccupied

With dead mistakes and imminent trouble

Out of the blue, there came my old memories

Tinged with sweetness yet it is feeble 

 

'I come home after a tiresome day at school

To be greeted by a cheerful mom who

Has cooked my favourite spicy noodles

And saved me a candy and some almonds too'

 

I never knew what I had up until 

I realised that I couldn't have it anymore

I would trade anything to go back there, in a heartbeat

But I know its in vain and it makes my heart sore

 

An involuntary tear trickled down my cheek

Memories may be feeble but feelings are strong

But there will always be a mom sending love from home

And for once in my life I know that I'm not wrong.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I know I haven't fully laid down my feelings, expressing my love for home but this is the most I could get out of my abilities. I hope it does justice to my feelinigs and explains what I intended to say!
