Your Little Man

The ocean is so calm,
as the sun rises above the horizon,
for all the memories we've shared together,
I can't help but to miss you my dear mom.

I miss when you hugged me,
and told me I was your favorite son,
we always laughed cause I was your only one.

I miss our fights,
and how I could never win,
and how you still told me you loved me no matter how stubborn I'd been.

I miss going shopping,
and holding your hand,
your love was the only thing that kept me going,
and to this day,
I'm still your little man.

I blame myself for your moving away,
I feel I didn't tell you something enough,
I love you mom.
I miss you mom,
But I'm trying to be strong and stay tough.

Sometimes I cry not knowing why,
I feel some day's I can't go on,
but you're the only reason I try.

I hold you in my heart,
knowing how nothing could ever do us part.

There isn't a day that doesn't pass that i don't think of you,
the tears that fall from my eyes,
are something I compare to dew.
Cause every morning it's on the ground,
and that's when I first think of you.

I know I have done wrong in the past to you,
just mom please remember something,
no matter what,
I will always love you.
