Mom,



Another year has gone by

Wtihout You Mom,

And we're doing OK.

We've had some scary times

Times, I wish you'd been

Here for me.....

But I guess that's just Selfish

On my part.

I'm learning that the promise

I made to you

That last day...

I haven't kept

I said I would

Be Okay, and good to myself ,

Just so could let go of your suffering.

I haven't been Okay....



You see, I tell eveyone

That your love was unconditional

Then I put the condition of it ..

On those last decisions I made...



It doesn't  make sense

That you would love me less...

I put the conditions on your

Unconditonal Love...



So for this Birthday Mom

I'm going to try each and everyday

To be more forgiving  to myself



Because I think somehow you know

Where ever you are how I hurt, and I

Wouldn't want that for my child ..

I can't imagine you would want that

For me.



Thank you Mom

For the gift of Unconditional Love

And forgiveness on your Birthday.

Love you, and see you,

When the time comes.

I love you, Mom
