An Afghan daughter at her mother's grave

Sometimes, sometimes, all you have is a poem, a song, or a brief memory but no tears.

Today I Want To Cry I want to laugh But with whom? Today I want to give a gift But to whom? Today is the day I should celebrate Where is she? Today is the day I should put the world at her feet Drop hundreds of flowers on her path Today is the day I should put heaven under her feet Give her all the happiness in the world This is the day I should put a smile on her face But how? Today is the day that I should be with her I cannot I am with myself Alone With just my tears and her dust Today is the day I sit with her memory I kiss her hands, They are full of my tears… as I sit at her grave Today is Mother’s Day She can’t hear me say Happy Mother’s Day By Shogofa
