Mum

I dreamt of you last night Mum
you smiled at me and held my hand
i woke up with tears in my eyes
and although the years have flown by
my love for you remains the same
as when you died part of me died with you
and although my soul is crying
your memory is alive still
burning bright like a candle in my heart
today, tomorrow and forever......
