You are my mother

Living room dancing

Sloppy kissing

Laughing, smiling

Mother

 

I know you

Although you may not know me right now

But I know your smile is the sweetest

Beautiful to my eyes

 

I cry when I see you

Because we cannot talk

There are so many things

I want to tell you

 

When I was young

You sent angels to my bedside

To keep me from harm

Sang me to sleep

 

Now I sing for you

As loudly and honestly as I know how

I am trying to make sure your safe

Free

 

I am your mother

Looking after you the best I can

Watching from afar

Loving, willing

Daughter
