My best mam

Mother mother 
You are to me 
All things good that life can be 
This love of life 
You gave to me 
Then let me love it 
Left me to see 
The path I would choose 
To go on my own 
You held in your feelings 
And left me alone 
The person I was 
The person I am 
You gave me my youth 
Because your my best mam 
Forgive me my mam 
For the years that we've lost
I should have been home 
No matter the cost 
So I write you this poem 
To say thanks and say sorry 
For over the years 
For the stress and the worry 
That I put you through 
I write this with love 
and I write this for you
               My best mam,
