Mother is Gone

...but Never Forgotten

Mag Inzire
You are gone, but will never be forgotten
What I have learned from you is irreplaceable

Although I am unable to touch you, I see you every day
Mostly at night when you come to my dreams

Your wisdom was so hard to see before, and I can only
Wonder how now it could be so clear

You were right so much more than wrong, and at one time
I was blind to it all

If there is one thing I can say for sure was that you saw way
More than I will ever see

Mother, what I have learned from you... All I can say
Is that I hope it never burdened you
