So long ago
I wrote my lines of love for you
So long ago
I lived my life for you
So long ago
I found I didn’t know you
So long ago
I left, left before you left me too
So long ago, so long ago
I loved you.

My Birthday is near, yours was today
Without your birth
My heart wouldn’t beat
My eyes see
Or
My feet walk beneath
Blue skies and aside green seas
It’s so long ago
You ceased to be amongst us
But still
I feel your presence here
Inside/beside of me.
May we love, be forever
Mother – Daughter
Far
Far into eternity.
~ Patrice
Happy Birthday Mom!
