To My Mother

I write this letter,
To let you know Mother,
That “you mean to me…. so much.”
I really longed for your touch.

Your unconditional love,
Gift given by God above,
As priceless as your smile,
That I missed it for a while.

May your soul rest in eternal peace,
In heaven, I blow you a kiss,
And I look up at the sky,
Thank you Mom, I love you Goodbye.

I can’t say the words to you now,
But in my heart, it stays there somehow.
Your inexhaustible spirit remains in me,
Your motherly love gives me energy.

My life was your greatest treasure,
It can’t be taken, it can’t be measure,
Your sacrifice and advice give light,
Now my future shines like stars, so bright!

P.S.
I didn't said goodbye to my mother on her last moment because she died in her sleep and I am not always by her side. I am also working abroad.
