A Mother's Gift Poem by mona martinez

how fast time flies,
you no longer by my side,
i seem to be alone,
just wish you would come,
a mother is the best gift,
to have and hold on to,
it's a gift i didn't want to lose,
but the time had come,
for you to be with god,
my with you had ended,
though this is not the end,
of our journey,
it still seem to be going,
but you taught me,
so many wonderful things,
i will always hang on too,
yes, i still love you,
i hate this pain i feel,
when i think of you,
but, it makes me feel alive,
to know i'm still moving on,
even when you gone,
everyday becomes easier,
to let you go,
i just can't admit,
that your little girl,
is no longer little,
i'm growing up,
i just wish,
you can be here,
with me to see,
the person i've become.
