Mom

in dreams like a haunting melody your voice calls to me sweet and sad i move to your music feeling your joy and your pain we dance in my memory because that is all you are now a longing,an ache that has no cure your touch almost forgotten i try to hold on to you but your face is lost in the withering wrinkles of time i was angry you left so quickly but knew it was your time to go i truly wish your soul the peace it deserves i really miss you
