A Mothers Letter To Heaven

A MOTHERS LETTER TO HEAVEN"

I SIT AND WRITE THIS LETTER

WITH TEARS RUNNING DOWN MY FACE

BUT I KNOW DEEP IN MY HEART

YOU ARE IN A SPECIAL PLACE

I THINK BACK TO THE TIME

WHEN GOD GAVE YOU TO ME

I HELD YOU IN MY ARMS

AS HAPPY AS I COULD BE

FIRST WORDS FIRST STEP FIRST SMILE

I WAS THERE TO SEE YOU GROW

YOU GAVE ME SUCH HAPPINESS

MORE THAN YOU WILL EVER KNOW

TEENAGE YEARS YOU HAD YOUR FEARS

BUT TOGETHER WE GOT THROUGH

IN GOOD TIMES AND IN BAD TIMES

I WAS ALWAYS THERE FOR YOU

I (WATCHED) YOU GROW AND LOVED YOU SO

SO PROUD OF WHAT YOU HAD BECOME

YOU WOULD ALWAYS BE MY BABY

AND I WILL ALWAYS BE YOUR MUM

THE DAY YOU DIED HOW MUCH I CRIED

MY HEART WAS BROKE IN TWO

HOW COULD I LIVE IN A WORLD

HOW COULD I GO ON WITHOUT YOU

BUT I KNOW YOU ARE STILL HERE

I FEEL YOU NEAR ME EVERYDAY

YOU LEAVE WHITE FEATHERS EVERYWHERE

I KNOW (YOU'RE) NEVER FAR AWAY

I SWEAR I HEAR YOUR VOICE

TELLING ME I LOVE YOU MUM

ONE DAY WE WE WILL BE TOGETHER

I KNOW THAT DAY WILL COME

REST IN PEACE MY CHILD

I SEND THIS LETTER WITH ALL MY LOVE

UPON THE WINGS OF AN ANGEL

TO HEAVEN UP ABOVE

KNOWING DEATH IS NOT THE END

HELPS TO EASE THE PAIN

BY HEAVENS GATE I KNOW YOU WAIT

TILL WE ARE TOGETHER ONCE AGAIN
