mother



When I look in the mirror I can see your face,
Then I remember you're in a better place.
I can still feel your love from miles away,
I know we will meet again one sweet day.
Losing you I lost a piece of my heart,
Nothing can fix its broken apart.
Since you've been gone my heart tuned to stone,
And now I feel so alone.
Now I live my life in sin,
Constantly running from Satans men.
I wish heaven weren't so far away,
Because I miss you more everyday.
Nothing lasts forever, not even a rose,
Because everything comes and goes.
No more tears, no more pain,
No more living life in vain.
Everyday here is filled with love ,
Just know I'm watching from heaven above.
