    Did You Know ?
    Mother, Mommy, Mom You left me so long ago
    Mother, Mommy, Mom; Did you know?
    Did you know that I loved you so deeply?
    Did you know that you left me so weakly?
    Mother, Mommy, Mom ; Why did you have to go?
    Mother, Mommy, Mom ; Did you know?
    Did you know I can't say your name without breaking out in tears?
    Did you know that you left me unprepared to face all my fears?
    Mother, Mommy, Mom you never got to see my children grow
    Mother, Mommy, Mom; Did you know?
    Did you know that when you died my heart was broken never to be fixed
    Did you know that by me and so many that you will forever be missed
    Mother, Mommy, Mom I still love you so
    Mother, Mommy, Mom; Did you know?
    Did you know that I prayed for you to live on?
    Did you know the next day you were gone?
    Mother, Mommy, Mom you were the best, a real Pro
    Mother, Mommy, Mom; Did you know?
    Did you know that you left me with someone to help pick up the pieces?
    Did you know she would always love me, with love that never ceases?
    Mother, Mommy, Mom I could never say goodbye or let go
    Mother, Mommy, Mom; Did you know?
    Did you know that when you passed my world came crashing down?
    Did you know she was an Angel, the one you left me with to be around?
    You must have known, you must have known, you must have known

    Very touching Johnny, I 'lost' my mother when I was 16. And we had issures that weren't settled. But I forgave her and let her go. I think you have to forgive your whole life - let it go, and start a new one, friend.

    I agree, good advice. I may just take you up on that. I am about to start over, and it should be a "fresh" start. Thanks

    She knows, it hurts her too. Don't hurt her more by not coming through it. Let her be proud of you and tell other angels"look at my son look how well he has done". It is how I get through it. When I cry I tell her just give me a minute mom, I need to get it out so I can through another day without you. God Bless you honey. I wish you well

    A beautiful piece expressing the endlessness of a mothers love but you must realize that she is never gone and for the heart and the tears that you poured into this the forced rhyme doesn't matter. You wrote from the heart and that's all that matters. M-Robb
