It was a dark and dreary nite March 4,2002
Little was I to know it would someone I did not want to do
For on that nite 6 years ago
I held my mothers hand as she let go
The gurgle of death rumbled through my ears
I tried to say she is still here
The pulse I felt was mine alone
Believing she was still here and not gone
I was shocked and spread the news
My mom was gone and what did I lose
I lost a person that brought me life
Taught me all the wrongs from the right
But never have I written a poem for my mother
They were always for Robbie or some significanrt other
Today I say forgive me mom for not remembering you
When I lost Robbie there was no grief left for you
Today I just wanted to say to you
A son's love for his mom is always true
Wherever you are I have many regrets
But my love for you I can never forget
6 years later to the day
Mom forgive me is all I can say
