HELPLESS in STEEMIT

Hello, my dear fellow @steemians! How are you today? I just wanted to share the actual footage of my beloved #mama crying again during the transfer of the bones of our #papa to his new #home.

HELPLESS

Originally composed by:

@starzy


My mom keeps crying and cannot hide
Until no more tears came out
This decided us, to bury papa and keep her outWhen #papa died



No words that came out of our mouth and complain
Only hug and comfort her
To let her feel that we are always thereI felt #helpless with what happened



She cannot stop herself again

After 22 years she saw the #papa's bone But now the stronger #mama faces the truth That #papa always lives in everyone's heart


Transferring to another place

That he lives now in comfort
Which all of us are in good breathe Makes #mama at peace



The purpose of God behind
She keeps on praying to live longer
In the service of her sons and daughtersMy #helpless mama understands

Moving, heartbreaking, yet hopeful - well done!
Interesting, the contrast between the wife in your story and the one in my story! I was thinking of a newspaper item on a wife whose husband dumped her for a trophy mistress, and the wife KILLED him, "accidentally" in an alleged struggle in the kitchen. He was a very well respected pediatrician. Who cheated on his loyal wife, mother of their three children....

Thanks @carolkean for appreciating and God bless
