To the mother that never stayed

I could wander a thousand miles
And give a million reasons
But none could ever make up
For the fact that you're not here
I want to celebrate you like others are being celebrated
Talk to you
Text you
Send you gifts to show how much I love you

I want to tell the world about you
What you gave up for me
How your love led me
And your prayers shielded me

But you never stayed

You never stayed to show your love
You never stayed to make those sacrifices
You never stayed to tear me down and build me up
You never stayed to be a mother.
If you were here, you'd have been the best mom in the world
Just like a million others

Happy mothers day mom
