Dear Mother:

Before you take my life:

I want to see the world and what it has for me

I want see the world before it goes away,

I want to experience a mother’s love,

I want to drink warm milk from your breast,

I hear the babies in heaven brag about this sweet milk

I want to cry and keep you up at night,

I want to be jealous too mother, I want to get attention babies get

I want to feel loved too, I also want to feel at home,

Mother please don’t deprive me of such a wonderful experience

I want you to smile every time you see my cute face

I love you mother, I want to grow old enough to take care of you

Ohh dear mother please don’t let go of me

I want my own identity

Mother please don’t take my life…

I’m only still growing.
