There will be sorry and pain "When A Mother Dies";
Tears of pain falling from your swollen eyes;
While a black and gray mocking bird singing sadly in a tree;
People standing around a close casket sadly as can be;
While she was living- There's no place like home;
Some people turn their backs on you- because momma is gone;
In your head you still hear your mother voice;
Now it's up to you, to make the right choice;
When things seem wrong and time gets hard;
Do like your mother did and pray to God;
I remember me and my mother use to laugh and play;
The sad days came when we talk about she going away;
She said "son keep going forward and don't look back;
Just call on God so He can take the slack";
She wasn't just my mother- she was my best friend;
Through thick-n-thin- from better to worst- she stuck until the end;
She died while I was in prison- so can you feel my pain?;
To write this poem, I have nothing to gain;
So I got a question to ask to you gangsters, gangbangers, and you ghetto thugs;
Will you live long enough to give your mother her last hugs;
Or would you be like me- always looking to the skies;
Because I truely knows how it feel "When A Mother Dies"
