'If I've made you laugh with joy, cry in sadness, or sigh in longing, then haven't I done my job as a writer?'


A mother’s love
Keeps you safe and sound
A blanket of protection
Watching over you

With mother
The monsters can’t hurt you
The dark stays away
All the wonders of the world
Are free for you to explore
With mother

Without mother
The monsters follow you
At every corner
The dark engulfs you
The whole world suddenly becomes
You’re greatest enemy
Without mother

Without mother’s love
Nothing is safe
You’re protector is gone
As the world turns a blind eye
To all the horrors you’ve faced
Without mother’s love

I based this piece off of a traditional Chinese song that was created to scare children into staying more closely to their mothers.
