Wake up, Mom!

Where are the kisses
That wake me up everyday
Where is the elixir
That keeps me alive
Where is the warmth
Of your safe bosom
To hug me today
You did forget
To take me home
You never did yesterday
What are we doing
By the tracks so desolate
The scenery so bleak
Broken rocks surrounds
You never ever did
Make me so uncomfortable
But why today? Why today?
All I’ve got is this cookie
Half eaten, half dirty
I’m hungry, Mom!
Wake up, Mom… Wake up!
