we had come so far
and seen so much

because there's so much more we haven't seen
i'll keep hope

that some day
not far from now

you'll yearn to be
with me
and we
could go
to where
you used to take me
back when i was young
so i could pretend
you'd never be gone
now who will push me
so i can swing?
not you

but this is not farewell
it's just an end

a single phase of life completes and then
what comes next

is something
nobody knows

but there is one
thing i
cannot
let go
and that
is when i look at
a picture of you
my chest aches so much
from wishing i knew
if i'd made you proud
to be my mom
i hope

there will never be a night
as special as what we shared
with the wind whipping our faces
you then had declared
that even though a life can come to an end,
it's love lives on in stead

i hope there will be a day
as beautiful as the day
that i dream of when im falling asleep
in our house
where we are holding hands and starting to cross
a street we've never known
mom, i look both ways
