My Greatest Best Friend

Life seems so unfair without you here. I'm left with only your memories wrapped up in my tears. ?? I know all my sorrow won't bring you back today. But the pain of you being gone never goes away. Words can never be worthy enough to explain the hurt I truly feel. I've heard people say that time? can only heal. But a person's journey in life is unique and dealt with in their own personal way. Sometimes every second?? is encumbered by the minute?? that drags on each hour of the day. ?? At the same time, I have to gather every shattered piece of me, unsure of where I belong. Then I hear?? your words that reside inside of me, encouraging me to stay strong.?? Throughout my years, I've been tucked under your wing.?? But now I fly ??alone, scared of almost everything. When I had you in my life, I knew everything would be alright. You were not only my mom, but my greatest best friend. I never realized that our friendship would have to end. I'll keep all your memories ??with me; Every single part. The good?? ,the bad??, the ugly??, I'll cherish with all my heart?. You were the best mom a daughter could ever have. Not one day goes by that I don't want you back. If only we had more time?. I would of been able to say my last goodbyes. I hope that I showed you how much I cared. Especially when your hurts was so hard to bare. All the medicine?? in the world?? could never take away your pain. Losing dad was to you like losing sunshine??through the rain?. I'll never stop remembering everything we shared. And I'll always say losing you just wasn't fair. But for now, I know I'll see you again in my dreams??. Where you look so beautiful and serene. Maybe in heaven?? we will see each other again. And we can continue eternity? of you being my greatest best friend.

Welcome to Poetry Soup, Andrea. I felt your poem and share the loss of my mother sometime ago. I love the way you interspersed the question marks throughout your poem because it revealed the questioning going on in your mind. Truly nice job and a nice tribute to your mom.
