This poem is dedicated to the author's dead mother.
To my mother
I would like to thank you
For your patience.
For keeping me awake at nights.
For avoiding to see who I really am.
I would like to thank you
For all the long nights we ve gone through together,
When all we had was darkness.
Thank you my sweet and beloved mother.
I never forgot you.
It was an honor.
