Mother's Glue

When I was just a little boy, my mother said to me "Since birth I've filled your heart with love, to give away for free So be a cheerful giver and it always will come back Just spread it everywhere you go and love you'll never lack" It made me kind to everyone, I always wore a smile Never met a stranger and I'd go that extra mile There always were so many friends, that liked to hang around Until one day I met a girl, who stole it and left town That first heartbreak, oh how I cried, felt all my love was gone Found out my pride, now hurt inside, for being strung along Angered by rejection, to this day still have the scar Right when I thought my life would end, a whispered, "There you are" I hung my head to hide my tears, my mom sat on the bed She softly said, "It'll be alright", then gently raised my head I saw her tears fall from her cheek, I asked, "What are you crying for?" She said,"These are a mother's special tears so you won't hurt anymore. I saved these tears, just for this day, I knew that it would come How love can up and walk away and leave your poor heart numb These special tears will mend your heart, they are called mother's glue Then fill it up with love again, then you'll be good as new You'll not forget just how it feels to take and not to give These tears of love will last you now as long as you shall live" She wrapped her arms around me and her tears fell down on me Each time since then, my heart's been broke, her tears are what I see by Daniel Turner
