MISSING THEM

TEARS IN MY EYES AS I THINK OF MY MUM

 NO LONGER WITH US TO SHARE IN THE FUN

 

NO SHOULDER TO CRY ON AND NO MORE LONG TALKS

NO ONE TO LISTEN OR TO SHARE IN MY THOUGHTS

 

 I COULD NEVER PREPARE FOR THE DAY WHEN IT CAME

 AND NOW THAT SHE’S GONE LIFE CAN NEVER BE THE SAME

 

MY HEART HAS BEEN BROKEN AND NOW CRIES IN VAIN

 FOR THE MOTHER I MISS MY HEART TORMENTED WITH PAIN

 

SHE TAUGHT ME RESPECT AND NOT TO BE SAD

 OF THIS I AM GRATEFULL OF THIS I AM GLAD

 

SHE WAS MY BEST FRIEND AND SHOWED ME THE WAY

 BUT NOW THAT SHES GONE I AM STARTING TO STRAY.

 

WHEN LIFE IS UNFAIR AND MY WORLDS TURNING BAD

THERES NO ONE TO GUIDE ME NOT EVEN MY DAD

 

AS HE’S WITH MY MUM IN HEAVEN ABOVE

 AND I’M LEFT ON MY OWN THEY TOOK ALL MY LOVE

 

ONE DAY I’LL JOIN THEM AND SEE THEM AGAIN

 WHEN GOD CALLS MY NUMBER AND ENDS ALL THE PAIN

 

LIFE IS SO LONELY NOW THAT THERE GONE

MY THOUGHTS IN A POEM SO THE MEMORY LIVES ON
