Please forgive me!
I don’t understand the size and the depth of the gap in which you stand
Please believe me
I’ll always be your number one fan
It’s no denying
Things I put you through
But like a mother
You were there through and through
There’s no understanding
The sacrifices you made for us
I’m only trying
To rectify the pain you felt because of us
It’s so demanding
The fact that I know you are crying
Please know this is truth I’m not even lying
The sacrifice you had to make
From day to day
Somehow you made a way
You always saved the day
I can see it
The pain you must have gone through
To raise these seven that didn’t alway appreciate you
Please forgive us
For what I put you through
I can only wonder
If my kids will treat me the way I treated you
The lonely nights I watched you pray
By your beside so deep so emotional so brave
You always laid it
Before His feet
Calling out the names of your children
In strength and not defeat
I bet you think I don’t remember
How many times you didn’t eat your dinner
So that we
Would always have a seat
At the table makes me cry wondering how many times you didn’t eat
So many times did we hear you pray
You’re only desire that God would keep us and make away
You need no reminder
Of all that was lost
Just like our Savior
You were willing to pay no mater the cost
I understand you
We made you this way
You were once sane
That is until we came
I’m just joking
But there is some truth in it
We all took something from you
It’s not a negative
So don’t be shamed
You did what you had to do
You had to play the game
Just like Jesus had to play the Jews
I understand Now
Just who you are but often wonder how many times we took it too far
A wonderful Christ fearing mother that’s who you are no wonder we made it this far
When it comes to loving
You are so far ahead of the pack
Just keep Moving and never look back
See you taught me how to believe
In the good of mankind but not to be deceived by the devils and
Not everyone has your interest at heart
You taught me this from the very start
You also showed me
How to love one another
And to give hurt feelings sometime
And Let it heal
Is what you would say
I carry it with me from day to day
So now it’s time
To give you your flowers and it must be today
So you can enjoy them forever and a day
I am blessed
To still have my mother
The day will come that’s my only fear
I love you more each day as God reviles
Just how wonderful
A person you are
To say the good things about you
Would take a life time just to get started
I don’t have much
But what I do is because of you
It is due to you
And always available to you
See to have
A mother who cares
Is such a rarity
And I will learn from you until God sets my soul free
I must say it out loud
This is so personal
But the world needs to see
Just how much my mother means to me!
Happy extremely early Mother’s Day
But truly this is how I feel every day of the year! I love you more than life it’s self. I wanted to express in words just how I felt! May God bless and keep you is my prayer!
