Memories

Years of agony, so distraught, grieving with true pain,
Another sharp corner and I'm screaming your name.

I hate how time passes, not one comforting word,
Like a sheep among wolves, I feel lost in the heard.

Before your cruel passing, wished I'd said goodbye,
Maybe then I could let go of the day that you died.

My dearest mother Mary, I named her after you,
She's exquisite with beauty, deep eyes shades of blue.

I love you my mother, my mentor, best friend,
Missing you more as each day slowly ends.

i think of you fondly and wish to talk with you here,
Wondering how I survived without you anywhere near.

Yes, I'm still lost, Mom I loved you so much,
Years have gone by, still remembering that touch.

You taught me to laugh, held me when I cried,
Told me not to be scared of the day that you died.

You hid all my secrets, to you I'd confide,
You were everything to me, Mom, why'd you die.

The cancer was gone, I thought you were free,
Why'd god take you from me, you're the reason I breathed.

I hate every Christmas, 'cause that's when you left,
That was the day that you took your last breath.

The doctor had told me this feeling would pass,
He said time will go on and this pain wouldn't last.

The more that time passes, the more that I feel,
The more I miss you and wish you were here.

I love you my mother, my mentor, best friend,
Wishing all good things hadn't come to an end.
