Oh,
mama
I
can
still
feel
you
Rest
now,
my
queen
October 12
th,
the
date
the
sky
turned
gray
The
phone
call
came
and
took
my
peace
away
You
took
me
in,
you
gave
a
son
a
home
Even
when
I
wasn't
yours,
I
never
felt
alone
I
rushed
back
home,
found
you
lying
on
the
floor
My
heart
was
breaking,
knocking
on
death's
door
We
raced
to
the
hospital,
oxygen
in
the
air
Two
days
of
silence,
mama,
I
was
in
despair
Mama
Salamotu,
why
did
you
have
to
go?
Only
fifty-two,
the
pain
is
heavy,
don't
you
know?
You
left
us
behind,
leaving
us
in
the
dark
Your
soul
has
flown,
but
you
left
your
mark
Rest
in
peace,
Mama, 1973
to 2025
Your
love
is
the
reason
that
we
stay
alive
My
wife
is
weeping,
little
Nadi
calling
your
name
Grandma's
not
answering,
things
aren't
the
same
Anty
Mariam,
she
can’
t
believe
her
eyes
Her
spirit
frozen
beneath
the
heavy
skies
We
were
your
children,
now
we
feel
so
small
Standing
together,
waiting
for
your
call
You
gave
us
comfort,
you
gave
us
everything
Now
we
hold
the
silence
that
the
shadows
bring
Oh,
the
house
is
quiet,
the
hallways
feel
so
cold
A
story
cut
short,
a
legend
yet
untold
Though
you
are
gone,
you’
re
etched
inside
my
soul
Only
your
memory
can
make
us
whole
Mama
Salamotu,
why
did
you
have
to
go?
Only
fifty-two,
the
pain
is
heavy,
don't
you
know?
You
left
us
behind,
leaving
us
in
the
dark
Your
soul
has
flown,
but
you
left
your
mark
Rest
in
peace,
Mama, 1973
to 2025
Your
love
is
the
reason
that
we
stay
alive
Rest
in
peace,
Mama
Salamotu
We
will
miss
you
every
single
day
Sleep
well,
our
angel
We
will
never
forget… (
