I Miss You! Poem by Liz Bedford

Will today be a good day? Or will I wake still feeling tired
Or yet again must I try to find the energy that's required
To be normal and happy, put on a brave face; try to pretend you are still in this space?
But you've gone and I miss you every single day, I wish that God hadn't taken you away
They say that time heals but I fear they lie, because I still find every day that I can't help but cry
I reach for the phone want to hear your voice, but it's futile because you have gone of course!
But just for a moment I almost believe, that it's just a dream I'll wake up with relief
But reality kicks in and it steals my breath, leaves me remembering, sad and bereft
I have not only lost my mother, you see, you were my rock my, best friend, the one who knows me!
So many things I wanted to say, but time stole my chances, took it away
I wanted to say that the things that you taught, have made me what I am; this cannot be bought
The bond there is between a daughter and Mother, is precious and blessed compares to no other
So Goodnight, God Bless, in my dreams you I will see, so smile, blow a kiss and wave your hand at me
Your were the best, the kindest, the funniest that's true; and for the rest of my life I'll always miss you.
