Mom

Some times I cry at night

Wishing you were there to hold me tight

Mom, sometimes I am scared and I don't know what to do

My life is not the same when I am not near you

Mom, there is alot of things I don't know

The answers to life's questions

Do you have any suggestions?

Mom, I am growing up more everyday

But you don't get to see it because you are so far away

Mom I try to live my life to make you proud

Try to be my own individual and not follow the crowd

Mom, you taught me to never reach for lower than the stars

and be proud of who I am

I love you, Mom, your daughter Sam
