Don’t let me cry mom

Don’t let me cry mom

Don’t let me cry mom. My lungs won’t grow, I won’t be stronger, I won’t be wiser.

Don’t let me cry mom. Don’t listen to these comments, your kisses will not hurt me, your chest will not make me depend, I don’t do it to bother you.

Don’t let me cry mom. I can only trust you, I only know your voice, your smell, I only think of you since I came out of your belly.

Don’t let me cry mom. Don’t teach me to comfort myself, I don’t need it, because I know I can always count on you. Don’t listen to them. You don’t spoil me when you take care of my crying. I don’t ask you for comfort at night to bother you, I’m looking for you because I need you, because I don’t understand this world we live in, because I just learned to love.

Don’t teach me to cry, to suffer, to be alone.

I’ll learn it, I promise. One day I will really cry and my crying will not be for you to take me in your arms or for you to give me the breast, one day my crying will be grown up and you won’t be able to comfort it. That day, I want to remember simpler days. Days when my parents used to kiss me and only with that, I stopped crying. These days don’t come back and if i never had one, I won’t have anything to remember. Don’t let me cry mom.
