My Dear Mother

My dear mother,
How I miss you so
I remember your smile,
As bright as the sun,
Your hair was long and curly,
Like a pool of brown water

My dear mother,
I wish it never happened,
That fateful day...
I'll never forget...

My dear mother,
Why, why did you leave?
Are you in Heaven?
Or is there no such thing?

My dear, kind, mother,
You left without saying good bye,
But you did wait for me, I remember...
They didn't allow me into the room, beacause I was too young
I begged to see you, and eventually a kind nurse let me in...

My dear mother,
I saw you bruised and battered
When I walked in, you looked at me,
You took your last breath, and...
You left forever

My dear mother,
I will always love you,
From New Years day, to Christmas Eve...
The time we spent together, I will always cherrish

My dear mother,
I love you.
