I guess, this is what you meant,
When you said, 'Be yourself and be content.'
You wanted me to be more than I am,
I loved you for that, for helping me in my jams,
But now, before these pictures leave my mind,
Before these tradegies make me blind,
I was crying, not wanting to believe this fact,
I would change what happened, but I can't go back.
It has been nine years,
Since you've passed away from here,
I've made a promise,
To never forget your kiss,
I'll never replace these eyes,
Since I am your son, I won't let your memory die,
This is one thing I have learned through this,
There is one thing I cannot miss,
It is the fact that you are still with me,
Smiling down from above with glee,
Everyday that I couldn't bare,
You were still there,
Because I now know, you haven't died,
No matter how much I've cried,
I know that you're up there in the blue,
I just have to tell you that I still love you.
My mother. |
