Mum got discharged from hospital today
Went into her bedroom as soon as I stepped into the house
Her pale expression reveals her weakened condition
Yet she still managed a wide smile of hers welcoming me
I asked if she was in pain..
Although she denied.. I knew it hurts
At that moment.. I rather it was me to take the pain than her
It hurts seeing her in pain

Sat by mum's side accompanying her
Gave her the brownies and candy I bought today
It instantly brought a smile onto her face

Served mum with a warm glass of water & helped her out with her medication
Lied beside accompanying her
Watched some tv shows together
And then I got to share with mum about my life
What's going on in school..
The thoughts that is in my mind..
How I feel and many other stuffs

Felt like a young boy again
To be filled with her motherly love and warm
It felt so good to be in the presence of mum
Mum held my hands as she listened attentively to the things I shared
She too shared her life experience and gave me many advices on the various topics

Accompanied her till she fell asleep
Tucked her to bed and exited quietly

Mum played a great role in my development throughout all these years
She shares with me on how to grow into a better person
How to treat others better and stuffs
Times like this are cherished moments to me
Knowing that my mum won't be around forever in my life
Cause me to treasure and cherish her even more

I pray that you'll get well soon mum

It great spending time with you
