Mum this is for you

Mum when I look at you now all that I see
Pain and anguish, you suffering how it hurts me
Why did our dad go leaving you all on your own
Time has taken it's toll, your sadness is shown

It's hard to cope with you feeling this way
Praying so much you'll get better each day
Four months gone by, but you need more space
It hurts so much seeing a blank look on your face

I can't handle the fact no words are spoken
Deep down inside me knowing your heart is broken
Here's hoping you can rebuild your life back up
Changing for the better with any god given luck

For now the past is the past you can move on
I know it's more easier said than it is done 
Were all trying to be here for you one by one
To look after you who is our number one mum

It all takes time it's a healer or so they say
Yet it's so hard, but you'll get there someday
Every word I've written in this is so very true
Within my heart I know our mum will pull through

All My Love 
Caroline
