Mom, it's been years since you've been gone Life goes on but it's been very hard The empty space in my heart is hard to fill And when I think of you I shed so many tears The memories of special days I wish would pass Your birthday, Mother's Day and the day that you passedThe wonderful memories that we shared Your love for us was oh so rare Love that was healing and oh so strong That great love that can make right of things that went wrong Mom, I miss your wisdom and your hugs You set me straight when I was wrong
My wounded heart bleeds but I stay strong Knowing that you are gone but it won't be long Until I see your lovely, precious face When I meet my Jesus on that special day
I want to go back to the islands To see the blue skies and the tropical breeze To see the island that you love so much And to remind me of your beauty and precious touch But dad can't bear to face it without you 'Cause it's where you met and fell in love
You were my comforter, my counselor when I was confused So I'm trusting my heavenly father to help me choose One day when I meet the right man I hope that you will help me understand To love him with eternal love Love that is inspirational like the love from above
My faith in God will help me through For he will take me by the hand and lead me through Mom, I hope you read this poem And know that it's made especially for you
