Your Loving Daughter
one last hug one last goodbye
she used to wipe each tear i cried
she packed my lunch we said amen
i will never see my mom again
it was a normal day, at least from the start
little did we know what would impart.
she said i’ll call you later, have a good day
i never knew those were the last words she would say
i love you, i replied
that was the day my mother died
they say there’s a reason for everything
but it will never take away death’s sting
100th floor is where she worked
she was the front desk clerk
she looked at the beautiful view
and saw a plane just flying through
I sat at lunch waiting for her call
right before the buildings would fall
I think of my mom twenty four seven
prayers go out to 9/11
everyday i visit her grave
trying to find the right words to say
im sorry mom i never said goodbye
i looked up to see an angel in the sky
My mom will never see me graduate
and in my heart all i feel is hate
Standing there in a crowd, i let go of the balloon
I love you mom, ill see you soon
And soon i will forgive the men who slaughter
I miss you mom,
your loving daughter
