Mama
I did not stop to tell you
I didn’t even try
I did not think about it
I’m not real sure why
You are always there for me
And yet this remains
I don’t tell you near enough
That I am just the same
All the things I wanted
In everything I do
I see that I’m a mirror
Reflecting what is you
I should have told you sooner
I could have let you know
I will always love you
Thanks for helping me grow.
Happy Mother's Day Mama
