A Poem to Mama
I’m writing this to tell you I am sorry,
For the time we lost and words left unsaid.
When I heard about your motorcycle accident,
Fear and realization filled my head.
We don’t see you as much as we used to,
And living apart makes the distance feel wide,
But knowing how close we came to losing you
Brought every hidden emotion back inside.
I think of our house and everyone in it—
Lily, Alissa, Aubrey, and Jaxon,
And how every single one of us needs you,
Because nobody else could ever be our mother.
I realize now how much you truly mean to me,
How precious every single moment can be.
I’m sorry for any distance or anger from the past,
I just want you healed, safe, and happy at last.
We’re all pulling for you.
