Nothing But a Memory

As I sit upon this empty room
I begin to let my mind wonder and drift
Back to the days I spent with you.

I miss you dearly mama
not a second of anytime 
goes by without a thought of you


From once being my rock
to the next being a stone site 
that I can visit. 
From always being a phone call away
to wishing that i could talk to you.
From always being the voice i looked too
to having to listen to the music you did 
so that I can hear you through the songs in my mind

It scares me that your becoming a distant memory
from someone I could always lean on.Everyone says time moves
to fast but that's not true it seems as if it doesn't move slow enough. One minute your here and the next your gone. Leaving us to wonder and hope that someday we will be together again.
