Bye mama

"Bye Mama"

It was as if it were a stone cold dream
First one in 17 years
First time hearing it, disbelief hit
Hearts in pain
Oh she had left us
Oh sweet mama
Then her life story begins to play in the minds of many
Oh Mama be gone for-ever
Standing at the side of your coffin
Carrying it with such honor
Oh sweet Mama
Words you spoke
Songs your sang
The agony of a soulistic heart
Saw this day coming
Yet never anticipated it to be so soon
A full year of pain
A life time of enjoyment
You loved us
And we loved you so dearly
Mama you left us when God had planned
We asked ourselves "WHY us?"
Then your words rehash in my memory
When disaster struck all you said was "why not you?"
Mama is gone

Mama mama!!! I cried out to you
No response...
A silent echo lingers
Words lost

Mama!!!

Standing over your grave all I could was cry
"Bye Mama" the only words one could utter
"Bye Mama" uplifted by a gentle cry
"Bye Mama" followed by a full flush

Good memories never forgotten
Lessons treasured

"Bye Mama" and silence covers
A legacy not to be forgotten
Shoes too big for any to fill
Except for one the Creator

"Bye Mama" and these are my words to you.
"Bye Mama"
...
As a silent cry echos
"Bye..."

*Gone but never to be forgotten* :(

I am Muano_M
And God is Love <3
