Forever
I wished I could freeze that moment forever,
That moment in you arms.
It hurts so much to know that things are changing
And I may never get a moment like this again.
So I stayed there for as long as I could,
My cheek resting against you soft, violet robe,
You hand cradeling my head,
Your other holding my back.
And I realized completely for the first time,
Even though I've known it forever,
That I will love you till the end of time and back.
But I wish just now
That I could freeze it for this moment,
Forever,
So that I don't ever have to let you go.
The tears fall
One splashes upon my hand
My heart swells with the love I return to you
For all that you have given me.
I have so much to say,
But I will just hold you until you know
I don't ever want to let you go.
I love you, mom
And I will love you
Forever.

Author's Note
I just wanted to let all that read this know that I truely wrote this for my mother. It was the day before my birthday, and it had never felt like such a big deal before. I just sat down by my mom on the couch, and I hugged her, and she hugged me back. And I just never wanted to leave. I felt so much love for her just then, I began to cry. I didn't want her to know that I was crying, though. That moment meant so much to me, though. When I finally let go, I went and wrote this poem and I was practically bawling while composing it. I hope you enjoy. It is all real and true and sincere.
Love is so much stronger than anyone can imagine. You never do know until a single, meaningful moment awakens your soul to the reality of it.

Aw, that means a lot to me, Ouady. I'm thrilled that you liked it so much =]. It really pleases me to know that my sudden writing inspirations mean something to others.
Keep the light inside alive; without it, you cannot see.

Amazing!
You're amazing!
That's really sweet. Has your mom read it?
I think she would love it very much.
Straight from the heart with no meaning is the best!
Love ya still!

Aw, shucks
Thank you, frizzyfro. My mom hasn't read it yet, actually. I've been thinking of a way to give it to her. I want her to have a physical copy. I want it to be really special, and I'm not sure if I should save it for a gift for her birthday or not. You leave great comments, you know that? Thanks =]
Run into the wind to show sheer determination.

Mother's day
Mother's Day would be a great time..
if you want to wait till May
~Frizz~
Actually
Actually, my mom's birthday is in March, so I could give it to her then. But that's still waiting a couple of months...It would probably have a greater impact on Mother's Day...I'll have to think it over...Thanks for the suggestion =]

Very touching
When someone else's writing can invoke emotions within yourself that is very special and this piece did that with me. This made me think of my mom and how I missed so many opportunities to tell her how much I loved her. I was beside her when she passed away and I made a promise to never push off what I can say or do today. I understand you wanting to wait for a special occasion to give her this beautiful poem of yours. The only question I would ask is why? Everyday should be a special day for the people we love. If this is how your feel today let her know, share that experience with her. She deserves it...

Love is just a word until someone comes along and gives it meaning.
Wow
That is a great goal, gcj--to never push off what you have to say. You are so right. I do not want to miss any opportunities. She really does deserve it. Thank you for giving me the nudge to give it to her sooner. I think it is the right decision. And my heart is warmed that you liked it so much =] Thank you so much for commenting and saying such wonderful and inspiring things.
When time waits for no one, make every day ~the~ day to make things happen.
