My Poems

For Mama

I miss you, I do.

There isn't a day that goes by I don't think of you.

I relive all the memories of when we were together,

the good and even the bad.

Just wait on me and we'll be together again I promise,

there won't be a single part of me that you'll miss.

I'll be there by your side for ever and always.

I repeat in my head the same thought every day.

"Just one more year. Just one more year."

It's that special two digit number.

I will be free and I'll come back to you.

I'll finally be home, right where I belong.

You're my everything and you're always in my heart.

I hate that you're hurting because we are apart.

I cry myself to sleep at nights because I just want to be home.

I hate where I'm at and I yearn for the comfort of your arms.

The only hope I have for living is that I'll be welcomed back home.

I don't know what I'd do if you had forgotten about me and didn't want me back.

I would probably try my hardest to succeed at my next attempt at death.

But since I know you love me and that you want me back,

I'm holding on to life with everything I've got.

Even when I think I can't take anymore and I just want to give in,

I picture your face in my head and I strive for air.

I'll never let you down just as long as you love me,

and Mama...

Don't forget I still love you too.
