My mum has gone away ! My mum has gone away, I wish she'd never left, If she had stayed a little longer This pain she would prevent This pain inside my heart, This pain inside my head, She'd take me in her loving arms And put a smile back there instead I miss my mothers smile, I miss my mothers skin, But most of all I miss her warmth and the love she bore within The love she had for me, my dad and brother too, My mum is my best friend, It's tough to struggle through To struggle through this loss, To grasp she isn't there, I sit and look around the house And feel her everywhere I feel her in the walls, In every single room, The cut is just too deep when I realize it's not true My mum has gone away, And no one can replace Her support, her charm, her joy Gone to their final resting space My mum has gone away And part of me's gone too My mum is my best friend, What am I now to do? My best to make her proud, My best to remain strong, To keep her memory vibrant, and live on and on and on My mum has gone away. I'll think of her each day. Smiling, laughing, joking mum and I, us two. Mummy you've gone away I wish it wasn't true I hope you always know just how much that I love you. Emma Hinchliffe .
