Dear diary,
Today I saw mom's tears
Wetting her pillow.
I asked her why so.
She said:
"It's just a nightmare."

I fell asleep, holding my teddy bear.
Knowing that adults
wouldn't cry for bad dreams.

Dad didn't come home after the meal.
Mom weeped,
and my mouth shut like sealed.
Wish it could do more than that.
