I Miss You Mom

I Miss You Mom


Oh, how I miss you Mom
I miss you so very much
Although I feel your presence
When, your possessions, I touch

They say, time heals the pain

The pain, I feel in my heart
Life must go on, yes I know
Though we've been pulled apart

Dear Mom, I still can't believe
That you are no longer here
Just want to pick up the phone
Listen to your voice in my ear

So many things, I want to share with you
What's going on in my life every day
You were always interested to know
All the little things I had to say

Sweet memories of you, so vivid
So very clear before my eyes
Your face, your smile, I visualize
When looking in clear blue skies

A butterfly, it flew direct onto my hand
There it stayed, as content as can be
Was it you Mom?
Returned in disguise to be close to me

Gone forever, I know, you never will be
You'll always be present in one form or other
It soothes my heart to feel you so near
Please, always stay close to me, dear Mother
