You left me alone, you had no chance to stay. Why couldnt you be here? Why did you go away? You were the only one here, the only one who cared. Now I'll never find another to have the love we shared. It was love not matched; one between daughter and mother. You are the only one there is; there could never be another. Now who do I talk to when a problem does come near? Now who do I turn to now that your not here? Now who will I go to when I begin to cry? Who will be my guardian angel always standing by? Who will hold my hand when I'm nervous or alone? Now who will I call since I cant call you on the phone? Who will I turn to when all I need is you? And who will I talk to when I'm feeling very blue? But, I loved you Mommy, more than you couldve ever known. And I never told you that, it was never really shown. I dont know who to turn to now that your not here. Now who will be kind enough to lend me an ear? I cant answer my questions, not yet you see, but one day I will and I can be free. Free from worries and free from pain and then I wont worry about the memories that remain.
Reason for writing:
I wrote it because my mother is dieing from Huntingtons disease, and I wanted to write something for her. It feels like she is already dead, but I wanted people to feel the way that I do when they read this.
