Ode to my Mom

In those fearful, deadly nights
When I walk alone in the darkness;
I see a pair of beautiful gleaming eyes
Of a beautiful lady.
When I look into those black, resolute eyes
Power streams into my veins.
The fear of the darkness vanishes
My will strenthens to find the ray of light.
Her strong and calm face radiates love-
Illuminates my soul.
She then stretches her arms forward;
I want to run towards her and hug her,
And rest my head on her warm bosoms.
But I can't
As I am thousand miles away from her.
Desperately I see in her face;
I can see tears trickling down her cheeks
And I hear her say in her soft tender voice:
"I only showed you the world, Son.
If you want to conquer it
You must do it on your own."
