I miss my Mum’s subtle smile and her love; recalling the times she’d sip tea and rock. Now in heaven, looking down from above; she sometimes visits my dreams, where we talk. A part of me died when my Mum passed on; I had never felt such a pricing pain. My heart instantly broke; all hope was gone; I never want to feel like that again. Mum lives in memories; immortal there, she’s still that spark of life that lit my fire. I miss her laugh and the scent of her hair; in the game of life, she played the umpire. When I’d ask my Mum if God was real, she’d just smile and say, believe what you feel.
