Beauty fades,
Personality doesn't last.
Friends leave,
As time passes fast.
Trust is broken,
Lovers lie and deceive.
Only she loves you unconditionally,
From the day you were conceived.
She watched you grow up,
And you'll watch her grow old.
All those secrets she kept,
And the stories she told.
She held you hand tight,
In the dark at night.
Provided you with comfort,
After you had a fight.
But beauty faded,
And youth flew away.
People left you,
With nothing to say.
You take her hand,
And she promised to never let you fall,
Because it's a mothers move that out lives it all.
