Original Submission by Margo Su San

Longing, A Beloved Mother Gone

As I stand here in solitude on the beach

With my eyes closed and not a soul in sight

I long for your voice

I hear it in the sound of the gentle waves

I long for your touch

I feel it from the soft breeze on my cheeks

I long for your love

I feel it in the air all around me
