I Could Until Again
Although it may sting to remember,
Just know that I will never forget,
You made me who I am today and will be tomorrow,
Two things that I will never let you regret.
I could fill this poem with sad "sorry"s,
And things that I shouldn't have done nor said,
But you taught me by your happy example,
And it is in you footsteps that I wish to tread.
I could lie and act like you're perfect,
Alas, nobody could ever be so,
You knew that and strove for kindess over perfection,
Maybe not winning, but puttin on one he'll of a show.
I could howl and weep and sob for days,
Acting like my broken heart has lost all,
But I know I'll always have the memories,
Of your short self standing tall.
I could smile and laugh and recall,
In fact I think that I will,
For you only ever wanted me to smile,
So that is what I'll do until,
We meet again.

A/N: My Nan asked me to write a poem about my mum and this is what I came up with. Please let me know if it's okay so that I know if it's alright to give to her. Thanks for reading! :)
