My Mother

MY MOTHER I dedicate this poem to my beloved mother I miss you mum, I miss you I know I always will I’ll never stop loving you I knew that you were ill I wanted to take away the pain I would have done it too But you just grinned and took it That is so like you I remember that look on your face When you told me you were dying It seems like it was yesterday I could not stop crying I know it’s been a long time In fact it’s sixteen years Time will never ease the pain It cannot stop the tears I say goodnight to you in bed And think of you in bed You’ll always be there in my heart It doesn’t heal in time My love for you will never die And this I know is true You just remember up above I’ll never stop loving you A large piece of my heart is gone But I am not too sad I remember the memories And they always make me glad You are my guardian angel Who always looks after me I look up at the stars above I see you shine, I see I hope you like this poem I made it just for you Remember I’ll love you always And I’ll always miss you too
