 What was the poet's childhood fear?

She feels the same pain that she used to feel as a child when scared of losing her mother or her company. Although she feels it could be the last time she is seeing her mother, she fails to express her fear or love in words to her. She only manages to smile helplessly and say “see you soon, Amma”.

The poet's childhood fear was that she would loose her mother some day. Like all other children she too had the fear of being apart from her mother and not being able to see her. While she sat behind her mother in the car and looked at her pale face, she could see her childhood fear turning into reality. She sensed that she might not be able to see her mother alive at her next visit and thus, she stood silently at the airport waving to her mother without uttering a word other than her only desire to see her soon in proper health.

The poet's childhood fear was that she would lose her mother to the cruel hands of death and would thus be separated from her forever. So she feared this separation from her mother.
