The final goodbye said They bury her - before my eyes. Losing my mom, I lost myself today In darkness so deep I try to find light, just a ray Just enough to hold on Hold on to life. Leading me to right Forgiving and loving A star so bright. As you leave today Let me cry, let me say My mom was my hero. I'll let it manifest in things Let this be a new start. My love for you hasn't died So I will not entomb its heart. Our relationship was never ideal Our journey very tough. Mom you left too soon I hadn't loved you enough. Seeing you draped in white My heart breaks, hope out of sight. Every day, I try my best to be A mother like the mom you were to me. You loved me with a never-failing love You gave me strength and sweet security, And then you did the hardest thing of all: You let me separate and set me free. Poet and actor Craig muMs Grant died at the age of 52.

And when I am tired I’ll nestle my head In the bosom that’s soothed me so often, And the wide-awake stars shall sing, in my stead, A song which our dreaming shall soften. There’ll be no little tired-out boy to undress, No questions or cares to perplex you, There’ll be no little bruises or bumps to caress, Nor patching of stockings to vex you For I’ll rock you away on a silver-dew stream And sing you asleep when you’re weary, And no one shall know of our beautiful dream But you and your own little dearie. We’ll walk in a sweet posie-garden out there, Where moonlight and starlight are streaming, And the flowers and the birds are filling the air With the fragrance and music of dreaming. I will see you next week.O mother-my-love, if you’ll give me your hand, And go where I ask you to wander, I will lead you away to a beautiful land,– The Dreamland that’s waiting out yonder.
