I had a dream about you last night mum
Where I finally got to say,
How much I love and miss you
Each and every day.

They say time is a healer mum
And the memories will always be real,
But neither time nor memories
Can change the pain I feel.  

The pain is ever so real mum
It gets harder in every way,
Even though I know you're not in pain
And we'll meet again one day.

I fear I'm losing some memories mum
Some seem to have gone astray,  
Apart from the memory of the night we lost you
The night you went away.  

That memory haunts my dreams mum
I wish it would go away,
I know my mind is repeating it
As I long for you day by day.

I long for just one moment
To hear you call my name,
And tell me that you love me
And hear me say the same.  
  
Until that day comes mum
Goodnight,
Godbless,
Be free.

Sleep well until we meet again,
With love to you from me.

My Mum, My Best Friend
