Goodbye Mom

Saying good bye as I've done a thousand time before
Can't ask you to carry this weight anymore
Your time is done, yet I hold you here
One last wisp of a memory almost forgotten completely

I'm selfish, these are my wants in my head
I tell myself such sweet lies
My life would've been better with you
We both know the truth

You were lost to me months before your death
I can't know the pain, the heartache you felt
The slow loss of life and limb
Knowing you wouldn't help your little girl grow up

I can wish for dreams that'll never be true
For a moment making the pain subside
But reality crashes back and you're still gone
And I miss you even more

Can't keep torturing myself with ill placed hope
The past is truly gone
It's finally time to let you go
Rest in peace Mom
