Mom, Do You Love Me?

From the first beat of my heart, a love was made. 9 months I was in your belly,  9 months and 3 days are the only time I've got to spend with you.  Mommy,  i love you. And I know you love me too.  But how did you get the nerve to leave me alone in this cruel world?
I thought you'll inaugurate me to this world.

---------
A mother is someone who'll always be there for you. A mother is someone who understands you.  A mother is someone whom you cant live without.  But guess what mom,  im living. 

I haven't seen your face. How do you look like mom?  Do I look like you?  Are you pretty?  Do you have this angelic face dad had fallen to?

Mom,  what do you think our life would be if we're together?  If you didn't leave me at the hospital? It would be happy, we would be happy. Wouldn't we?

Until now,  I still can't understand why you left me and daddy. But I know there's probably a valid reason behind it. 
-----------
Mom,  dad called me.  He said you saw each other,  at the coffee shop?  When you saw him,  did you think of me?  Did you even think of me even once?  How come you never came back?
But then,  i still hope there's  valid reason behind it. 

Then there comes the time,  where we planned we'll meet.  Mom,  I've travelled another island alone just to see you.  I've been brave just to meet my mom.  I can't wait to tell you about my life,  about how good I am at school and most of all,  i cant wait to ask you to live with me now. 

Mom, im here now.  In the restaurant we're supposed to meet.  I was enthusiastic in meeting you.  I felt my blood rushing as i sit here waiting for you. And i waited, and waited,  and waited. 

Mom,  5 hours has already passed. Im scared now mom.  Why didn't you come?  But wait,  maybe you're just caught up in traffic. 
But mom,  its been 5 hours already. 
Mom,  i was disappointed. I was downhearted. You promised me mom. You promised. And you left me again.

I've always been longing for a mother's love.  I've always been longing for your hug.  I thought im not gonna be lonely now.  I thought i'll finally feel your love like how you used to love daddy.  But mom,  i was wrong. 
Mom,  do you really love me? 
Don't you miss me?

Because mom,  even if i haven't met you nor saw your face nor hear your voice, I know that i love you and i miss you.

People might think I have everything I need,  but there's one thing I've been longing for.  It's you mom.  But sadly,  you never cared about me.  And don't worry,  I'm living my life happily,  without you.  Even of I'm not complete,  I'm still happy.  For I have a loving and ever supporting father.
Who's always been there for me, in ups and downs. He fulfilled the duty which you failed to do.  He is my hero.

But I know,  time will come where we'll finally meet.  And where we'll finally be together. And I'll be forever waiting for that day. Hoping to hear you say you love me too.
