Mum, where are you

You've been gone for so long I don't know how to go on You're right in front of me Just in reach, but out of touch Mum, I miss you too much I know you're right there But all you show is your vacant stare It's like you're not quite here Like my reality is a fiction And you're a character of another's tale. Some days you're solid and fun Not today though - today you're gone Today you're fading as though you're not real. Dad's worried about you too Please, this is a wound I need to heal. Mum, Where are you? Can someone please tell me: where is my Mum?

I feel your pain, Lucia, but I can't imagine how hard that must be for you. I hope everything gets better for you.
