Don'T Cry Tonight My Mum Poem by David Boyce

Don't cry tonight my mum


Don't cry tonight my mum,
Because you think I'm gone.
I am still walking around you,
Where I will always belong.

I see the family around you,
Taking care of your wishes.
It really isn't important now,
If you forget to do the dishes.

You need to take care of yourself right now,
You feel your hearts just been ripped out.
Please don't blame yourself mum,
You couldn't stop me going out.

I suffered with my illnesses,
For so bloody long.
I'm now at peace and don't hurt no more,
So don't be sad that I am gone.

I know today your hurting mum,
But please don't be sad.
I'll be waiting here at heavens gate,
With our Paul and me Dad.
