You have been gone for so long now.
But I feel you all around me, guiding me.
Helping me now to be me, open up and be strong.
I see all these years you have came to me through other mother's eyes.
My friends mothers were there to help you guide me.
But from MaMa to MAA to Mom there may not ever be
someone that would take the place of the one I always called Mommy.
