Mom

Folder: 
old misc.

               When I cried in heartbreak

                   you were there

             When I needed advice on life

                  you were there

            If I had concerns on my mind

                  you would listen

            If I needed to say something

                  you would listen

            Though I grew up differently

                  you still cared

         Through dealing with petty problems

                  you still cared

         If I felt like something was missing

                 it would be you

         If there is another half of my soul

               then it would be you

        The only word I would ever speak again

                  would be mom

        The only person I would ever want more

                  would be mom

              Mom is the word for god

         on the lips and hearts of children.

            And so, I love you Mom.

Well said. I don't know where I'd be without mine. A lot of people don't appreciate what they have until it's gone. I'm glad you appreciate her while she's there.
