Without You Mama

I never thought

it will ever be without you mama...

 

I couldn't imagine

nor dream..

when I call you,

 you wont answer,

until now that my tears

let me know I will go on without you mama..

 

it was nice with you,

as you tried to make me a clue,

and now it shocked me on the crew,

in the world without you mama...

 

when I look at your picture

sadly smile my unhappy gesture

i think of going round

weather I will ever see your smile

that will cure....

but wouldn't be,

without you mama

 

 

who else will I show

when I win to grow,

after all I dream you

as dream t me,

and now isn't so,

a gift without you mama...

 

I will pray for you,

to rest in perfect peace

hoping we will meet at the garden...

 

rest in peace mama...
