A Mother's Love

I've watched you grow, From my little boy to a young man. The tears overflow, As I leave you to fulfill your life's plan. I look out the window at the sky, Feeling sad as a part of me is left behind. I didn't want to say goodbye, But I know yourself you have to find. I may be miles away, Or may not be able to see your sweet smile. But my heart will be with you everyday, And each time I close my eyes I will be with you for a while. There is so much you want to do, And even more that you want to see. I hope and pray all your dreams come true, And I'll always be proud of the man you'll be.
