Mamaw


There isn't a day when I don't think about you or a moment where I don't miss you. Once you left, it seemed like things got harder, and my life seemed to get shorter. Mom and dad were always yellin' and baby brother was getting bullied, but you left me to deal with it all on my own. I started prayin' and things started changin', and that night I knew you were there with me. I smelt you in the corner, and, for once, felt happy. I cried because I knew it was only for a short time, but I still hold onto that as hope, now I live each day with confidence and a stress-free style. Though you've been gone since '09, I still remember the times you come to visit me, I love you Mamaw and that will never change.
