You were the one who had to fight,
just to make sure I grew up right:
You were there when i would fall
Telling me I cannot walk before I crawl,
When I was sick in bed
You were there to kiss my head:
Now it's you who is ill,there's a void
I try to fill
There are tasks I try to take hoping that
I'll make you proud
Not so much of what I've become but
of who I want to be
Just to bring you mental light
although you cannot see
Mother...I want you to know
I Love you with all my heart
Even if sometimes it doesn't show
Your loving son
