I’m writing this poem for you, Mom,
because I want this poem to be
my own special way of showing you
how much you mean to me.
I have so much to say,
and I don’t think this poem will do,
but each word in between these lines
comes straight from my heart for you.
I know I haven’t been a perfect son,
but you’ve taken things in stride,
and no matter how many problems I’ve had,
you’ve always been by my side.
I could talk to you about whatever I felt,
because I knew that you’d understand,
all that you asked from me in return
was to stand up and be a man.
If I asked you for some advice
you never have told me no,
and if I made a dumb mistake,
you’ve never said I told you so!
You’ve always treated me real special
and sometimes I don’t understand why.
But when I think about how I’ve hurt you,
it makes me want to cry.
This is an apology for the mistakes I’ve made
and the conflicts that we’ve had,
for all the times I’ve hurt you
and for all the times I’ve made you mad.
I wrote this especially for you mom,
this is my cry out to you.
To let you know how sorry I am
and how much I really love you!!!!!!
