Then I woke up,
From the sweet dream I've led.
Mom's heart came to a stop.

We went to a nearby bakeshop,
Telling jokes while buying bread.
Then I woke up.

Never knew you needed a checkup.
And now you went ahead.
Mom's heart came to a stop.

She complained about her makeup
And I laughed about it instead
Then I woke up.

I thought you'd stay until we grew up.
I still have so many things left unsaid.
Mom's heart came to a stop.

I could feel my tears drop
Seeing you there on the hospital bed.
Then I woke up,
Mom's heart came to a stop.
I wrote this for a close friend, whose mother died. Sadly she posted it online a year later claiming she wrote it. So I had to post it here.
