Happy Mother's Day
Another mother's day is here
And it makes me wish you were near
I think about you all the time
Days like today you're esp. on my mind
There's so many things I want to tell you
And I could really use your help too
These are the days I miss you even more
Than I ever did before
But no matter how many days pass me by
And knowing that you are flying high
These are the kinda days nothing makes me feel any better at all
Just wish that I could call
What I would give to hear your voice
If only that were a choice
Just wanna wish you a Happy Mother's Day
Even if there was nothing more I could say
If only I could say that much to you
Ant tell you that I love you too
A single moment is all I need
Feeling a little selfish and full of greed
Because deep down I know you're in a better place
But in my heart I hold this empty space
As I whisper these things to the sky
Cuz I just wasn’t ready to say goodbye
Wishing these thoughts and feelings I didn’t have to bare
Here I sit across the water I stare
As I write these words I can't just say to you
Cuz missing you is something I will always do
Some people just don't have a clue
But without you
Mother's day just ain't the same
And though I know there's no one to blame
A part of me wishes I could
Because God knows I would
I try so hard not to let even a single tear fall
I know it won't help at all
But as I see everyone around me
Can't help but wish like this it didn’t have to be
And that here you could be too
So I could spend this Mother's day with you
But up above is where you are
And another Mother's day without you here I must bare
Just know that today like any other day
I send both my thoughts and love your way
Another poem I must write
Another tear I must fight
And all I really wanted to say
Is Happy Mother's Day!!!
