Remember when you held my hand
And helped me take my first steps,
You picked me up and whispered
Softly, words I cannot forget
Remember when I started school
the tears rolled down your cheeks,
I slowly walked away craving
Another embrace
Remember when I graduated,
You stood so proud and cheered
I threw my cap into the air
And heard them words you whispered
Remember when you opened you eyes
And gave me one last glance,
Tears rolled down my face
As I breathed in your lingering taste
Remember the fun times we had
And how they are all gone,
I wish so much for one last touch
And for you to take this pain away.
