I Never Said Goodbye

I never said goodbye
Since you left without a warning
Asking myself the question “why?”,
I didn’t see this coming. It hit
me with a surprise but I hold on
To the belief that moms never really die

Death beckoned on you
With outstretched hand
You took death’s hand
Without hestitation
Leaving me in devastation

I never blame you for that perhaps
you seek for peace in death, the one
You never got on earth.  I wish I could
say goodbye  but you never,
gave me the chance to say goodbye


Holding on to death’s hand
Journeying into the promise land
I pray you get the peace you seek
I wish I could take a peek,
at you but I know that’s not possible

Keeping with me the good memories
I want you to know how much I really
cared. Till we meet again
I love you, I miss you and for now GOODBYE

In loving memory of my MOM
