A Passing
seeing... witnessing...watching...a passing
too embedded in there life's...too lost in there emotions
fillings unwilling to surface...yet easy to subside
looking into there eyes as they hide from whats to come...a life passing
to know you have this time...a moment...now and to let it go
I could if it were me, if it was I only because I been there
years have past and I can still fill the time we shared before her passing
it hurt...it hurts...but I got so much out of it
it was her time, it was hard and it's something I never forget
to share a moment, a look, even a smile...while passing
I missed, I miss but I had no remorse no hard fillings
there was no could of should of no ifs at all
just memories of a moment...of a time...of her passing
if you knew what would you say? what wouldn't you say?
what do you want to know?what do you want unknown?
if you knew...like now...before her passing
I never wanted it to come...how do you say goodbye
it's mom...she's my heart...my every thing...how
but I did it, I asked, I listened, and I understood her passing
easy never, but I never seen some one do with such grace
she knew, she welcomed it she was always my hero and she did it again
should what it was like to live and how to embrace life's passing
so I get angry when some one won't see whats before them
how they know what really is the meaning of life
fortune and fame, good times and bad, the birth and the passing
you live...you cherish every moment...with nothing taken for granted
the hand dealt should always be played it's yours...
I just wish I make them see be with her help her and understand this passing
the tears that flow should only be for missing not remorse
memories shouldn't go by...moments should never be alone
in life and in death she knew words embrace moments heal and love is ever lasting.
