Mom
MOM
Times were hard my heart took a beating I felt so bad when you stopped breathing.
Mom, I remember the day that you went away, All of our hopes and prayers, wishing you would stay.
It tore at my heart sitting by your side. Knowing every breath was one closer to the other side.
You gave us a gift, you gave us all life, You made us appreciate all the gifts of life.
Baby bro still hurts, feels all your pain. It broke my heart, He said "Mom don't go! We need you! Please stay!"
We all stood together, we held our heads high. You're at the edge of heaven. Watching the world go by.
Our hearts still hurt, yet life moves on. But always Mom, in our hearts, your spirit lives on.
