I am your mother, why have you forsaken me?

With a broken heart I am writing to you son.

Source

I carried you for nine months, where did our love go to.
You suckled from the breasts of my youths for over thirteen months, with love I fed you.
While suckling you bit the nipples of my breast but I never complained.

You kept me away from the cuddles of my husband in the night.
In Your long nights of stomach pain, I chose you over the husband of my youths.

Nothing else mattered anymore because of you. Even when you became a teenage, you were still my baby.

Remember that night you stepped on a nail?
Remember how painful it was?
Remember how I joined you to cry?
Remember how you promised me that you will be more careful?

When you grew up to the man that you are now, I was so happy.
I said to myself, "my days of stress are over". I said also that "my nights of watching over your head was over". My son is now grown! He knows the right thing to do.

But that's not the case son.

You now ignore me!
I call you ten times on a daily but you don't pick my calls.
You return my calls ten hours later to tell me how busy you were.
And before you finish explaining, you quickly tell me you have another call.

When I sent you a text begging you to pick up my calls or reply my text, you quickly replied saying,

Momma I do online business. I can't give you all the time you need.

Ooh son!!!
If you make all that money without giving me some time, some love and care, what then is the point of making the money.

My bones are weak now son. Age has taken its tow on me. But my heart can be stronger. It just needs a little bit of love from you to make it live longer.

Money is good son. But it should never come between you and the people you love.

Dedicated to all the beautiful hearts(mother,wife,husband,children) that have been neglected because of the chase of money by their loved ones.<

My Advice: Make lots and lots of money both online and offline but never allow it come between you and your family. Never allow your loved ones compete for attention with your money.
