My Son, My Child
A mother's heart, a heavy load
My first child, my love abode.
The years went by, and you grew tall
Now, the thought of life without you, I must face it all
I remember laughter, tears, and every stage
From tiny hands to a strong, brave man's page
Your smile, your voice, your eyes so bright
Forever in my heart, a beaming light
The weight of what's to come, it presses down
A timeless grief,a heart that's torn
I'll hold on tight to every moment we share
And cherish every breath, every glance, every care
From dreams of your smilling face, I wake. Now tears fall, and my heart can't hide the ache
The pain of losing you, it's hard to bear
A loss that's coming, a grief so rare
Though it's hard to let go, I'll find a way
To hold tight to these memories, night and day
For in my heart, you'll forever stay
My son, my love, my forever memory
