A Mother's Role
April 18, 2013
I watch her as she walks through the halls
If only I could help her every time she falls.
I recognize the absence of a mother
A hole in her heart like no other.
She envies her friends day to day
Why did they have to take her mother away?
I see her pray to someone above
"Help me, Lord, send a guardian dove."
But little does she know I'm always here
By her side, guiding her through every fear.
A mother on the ground or one in the sky
The only difference is one has died.
