I wish I could

Tell you how much I love you

I wish I could

Tell you how much I need you

How much my heart brakes

At every stepping stone I take

And I know you can't be there

I wish I remembered more of life before your death

Have I blocked out the memories with the pain?

Or is this just one of life's many ways?

I wish others understood

That a mother is not just for your childhood

But for every stepping stone you take

For every smile or heartbreak

And I wish others understood

That a mother has needs too

And I wish words could explain

How much I miss you every day.

I love you Mum
