Notes About The Poem

this is a poem for a person who played a big part in my life

she gave me two daughters and when she was sick didn't complain 

sadly past away and left a great hole in our lives she stood tall and 

i will always love and miss her 

 

 

Always there

In the darkness I hear you crying
In the dark I feel your body shake.

I want to say it will be alright but
What difference would it make.

I put my arms around you to try to
Make things better.

But your tears keep on coming and
You show me the doctor's letter.

I put my arms around you to say it
Will be okay.

But I feel so useless when your pushing
Me away.

I tell you that I love you and the pain you
Have we share.

So remember that when your ready 
I will always be there.
