Samson

I lay there in a daze
watching you sleep
with thoughts racing in my head
as I was trying 
to memorize your face.

I just wanted to hold you,
Wishing that I could show you how I feel
for it might be the last chance..
the last day together
one moment I would cherish forever

I know tomorrow 
I'll be watching you walk away,
not wanting you to go..
but I must and I have to find the strength somehow,
To kiss your lips goodbye...

Ayesha Karim Date: 12/19/2012 6:54:00 AM That's how I feel about my mom and some of my most supportive "real" friends. I never want to lose my mother when I lost my father I was 2 years old. Losses in my family have been plenty but I feel like my mom and I were connected since my birth and she is there for me always but has her own life. Sometimes I will be miles away from her but she's always on my mind. I have to be strong and learn to cherish the good times we do have together and be willing to live without her if she was to die.
