Show me which way you went
I can't find you anywhere
Give me your hand
I can no longer feel your warmth

Where did you go
I can no longer feel you here

You've gone away
and it's been only a month now
I try not to remember you trembling face
begging to get out of that bed
but too weak to endure the pain any longer

We all took sanity in knowing
we had made the right choice to let you go
but will we ever know if we did truthfully

All of the pain you endured throughout your life
came out on your skin like a canvas
The world painted its needs on you
while you helped to heal their wounds
A nurse fighting in the war for life

Mother we miss you dearly
but you will not be forgotten
we will keep your spirit alive through
keeping your name in our mouths
and the memories in our hearts

We will never forget the little things
the inseparable moments we shared
cause even though your not with us here
we know your watching over us

All we want is for you to be free of the pain
forgive yourself for all the faults and mistakes
you think you may have made
because in our eyes you were and still are
The best mother anyone could ever ask for

Thank you for holding our hand when we needed you
we had the chance to hold yours before you went to heaven
just be our angel and watch over us
we need you more than ever now

As long as your spirit stays alive
you will never be forgotten
As long as were here on this Earth
we will always have you to guide us
Please be our strength and our perseverance
take us to new heights and show us new things
We need you now more than ever
Use the things you learned in this life
to teach us spiritually so that we can be as free as you
