Mom

MOM I think of you always your memory will not fade I never left your side that night and never let go of your hand You were fighting so hard tears flowing from your eyes the pain was to much to bear I told you not to worry I said I would be okay I kissed you cheek and you closed your eyes Then the pain was finally gone away A poem for my mom who was taken to soon

A beautiful trubite to your Mom Michelle. I was at my Moms side too and it was the hardest thing ever to do in my life. I am with you at heart for we shared the same thing. God bless you. Anne
