I just thought I’d say
I love you and goodbye.
We will miss you dearly.
I promise I won’t cry.
I will never forget our talks,
Conversations on the phone.
How happy you were to see me
When I finally came home.
You worried so much about me.
I worried about you too.
I know this is the hardest thing
We’ve ever had to do.
I know you’ll always be with me
Wherever I will go.
No one needs to show me;
I will always know.
I don’t know what to do, Mom.
I never thought I’d lose you.
Where I’ll go from here
I still haven’t got a clue.
I hope you’ll watch over me,
Be my guiding light
Giving me the strength I need
To win this endless fight.
You’re my guardian angel, Mom,
Sitting on my shoulder,
Whispering your words of wisdom
To use as I get older.
I don’t want to say goodbye,
But we’ll meet again someday.
We’ll pick up where we left off
Before you went away.
