FOR MY MOTHER

My mind is racing

As I feel my heart beating faster and faster

I can almost reach out and touch you

But you're not there.

You went away along time ago

And I have very few memories of you.

I sometimes cry at night because I miss you

But I don't really know you

Mostly all I know about you is what others have told me.

I feel there's allot of you within me and I cherish those heredity's.

At times I think that I've missed out on a few things in life because you were taken from me at a very young age.

This started out to be a poem and has started reading like a letter to my Mother.

I can feel that someday, somehow, somewhere, we will be together.

 I can feel you watching over  me.

 I just wish I could reach out and touch you.

But you're not there.......
