i sat by her bed
and held her hands
for an hour or more
i cryed
i saw death
in her eyes

tryed ta' tell her
wahta good mother
she'd been

tried ta' ask forgiveness
for the heartache i'd given
tried not to know
i'm losin' her
tried ot ta;' feel
what i had ta' feel

i held her hands
held 'em tight
tonight
i kkew
i's losin her

saw it in her eys
she'd ready ta' die

so i cried
& walked away
didn't think
i'd see her
another day

i cryed
i saw death
in her eyes

mom,
i love you
goodbye
go ta' sleep
be at peace
mom,
die

you know one of the elements of life we can't deny is that everything ends... losing someone we love is something we never want to have yet we do all in the end... this has been very very moving...
