I Never Sang For You

There are many days I miss her, A powerful and unique lady, What truly deters, Is why he married again. I remember back when, She always wanted to hear my voice. I was too shy and nervous to begin, Soon I had the courage but I lost my choice. She never got to hear me sing, Never heard a tuneful tone. It crushed my soul my everything, Made my heart completely stone. I wish I would've had the skill, To sing for this vessel of knowledge. After she left it went all downhill, I won't even forget you when I'm in college. I will always miss your lovely smile, If I performed for you, it would be worthwhile. Ma-Maw will remain in my heart, For I hope to never fall apart.
