I’m 36 years older now, Mom…
I was losing you for a lifetime
And I went away for the summer
I was losing you for a lifetime
And I went back to school
I was losing you for a lifetime
And I ran from home when
You had a seizure
I was losing you for a lifetime
And you told me to
Take care of Aunt Bobbie
I was losing you for a lifetime
And while in your coma
I held your hand, telling
You to hang on for Eliza
I was losing you for a lifetime
And neither one of us
Ever acknowledged
That I was losing
The You that was meant for Me…
