Missing Mom and Dad
The rain hits my window
I'm feeling very sad,
on days like today
I'm missing Mom and Dad.
I still say good night to them
every night that passes by,
I think of them quite often
there are days, I just want to cry.
I promised the both of them
I'd keep writing my poetry,
there were times I wanted to quit
my thoughts won't let me be.
I think it's the both of them
getting me to push my way through life,
or maybe they're sending a message
to help me with my strife.
At times I can swear to God
I hear them whispering in my ear,
telling me not to give up
in my heart, I hold them near.

I was trying my best to type out the last couple of lines, but I really can't see past the tears. I do believe they're watching over me.
