There's something to be said For all the things you do Even the silly things That make me smile in my sleep You've seen my every step And shown me how to manage The first ones The fast ones The tough ones The slow ones The ones that made you laugh And the ones that made me stronger But there's a few more steps I have to take Up those steps to shake a hand And hear my name read, at the stand Society deems this as the moment We part our ways But only our bodies, not our hearts You won't be there to fold my clothes Or keep my dates Or even talk to me About my day But you will always be there As the one who loved me along the way And the one who raised me To the man I am today I hope to never see a time Where I don't miss you- The precious women I call: Mother

To My Mother
There's something to be said For all the things you do Even the silly things That make me smile in my sleep You've seen my every step And shown me how to manage The first ones The fast ones The tough ones The slow ones The ones that made you laugh And the ones that made me stronger But there's a few more steps I have to take Up those steps to shake a hand And hear my name read, at the stand Society deems this as the moment We part our ways But only our bodies, not our hearts You won't be there to fold my clothes Or keep my dates Or even talk to me About my day But you will always be there As the one who loved me along the way And the one who raised me To the man I am today I hope to never see a time Where I don't miss you- The precious women I call: Mother
