Mother
A Long time ago before I can remember
You held me in your arms
Stars sparkled in your eyes
As you looked down upon my reddened face
You gave me life then cancer
Took yours away
Now all I can do is wonder what you were like
I never knew you and you never will know me
So together we are lost without each other
I cry myself to sleep at night
Longing for just one embrace
For you to hold me in your arms
And tell me that you love me
I know you are looking down
From above and no matter where
I go or what I become
You will always be right there with me.
