I came to a little cafe
On a typical Friday morning
I saw a little girl
Sitting on a chair across me
I asked her where is her Mummy
And she pointed towards me.
Horrified, I ran into a little alley
I came to a dead end
And she was there,
standing and pointing at me.
I collapsed from shock
and blanked out
Into a deep sleep
Somewhere else.
In my dream, I was a little girl
I saw my Mummy.
I ran towards her, but she disappeared
Before I could touch her.
“Mummy, Mummy, wake up!”
The little girl shoke my body awake.
I looked at her closely
and realised she is the younger me.
“Mummy is here.”
I hugged her tightly.
