MOM
by Julie S.

My mom is very special
Even thought we went through good and bad
I will never forget you
Because you were never hateful

You were always in my life
And always will be
We were meant to be together
Even now is never

I'll meet you someday
Up there in heaven
When you went away
Nothing was the same

I go through a lot of pain
In my life you left a huge stain
When I think of you
My heart starts to race
I burst into tears
But I don't fear

I remember seeing you in that bed
Next thing I heard you were dead
They say a flower is beautiful just like the sky
But, dad, when this happened, why weren't you by my side?
