My Sons,

There are no words to say here that I've found to help me through

There are no books that tell me how to explain this all to you

It is no wonder that your hurting, I know cause I'm hurting too

But believe me when I say the last one's I want to hurt is you

I know it doesn't help much now, with all the hurt you feel

I'm sorry that this happened and there's noting I can do

But with all the years that have passed me by,
I have to face the truth

And no matter how I try now these feelings just wont go

And believe me I have wished for it, so- so long, but no...
I can not live a lie now, and so it is I go

I feel so bad inside sons, confused and lonely too

Before I walk out that door just know I'm missing you

And the reason that I've stayed here is because of you

I wish that you could know loves, all I have been through

But talking bad about your dad is something I wont do

I ask one thing of you sons, wish happiness for me,
for no matter where we are sons, your mother I will be

If I could move the heavens or rearrange the sea
I would go to the ends of earth to see you both happy

I've tried to keep together all that I hold deer
For years I have succeeded, but sons my time is here

I must be moving on now, as the years have passed me by

I can not going on living in a love that is a lie

But know that you are always, in my heart and on my mind

And no matter how mad you get, I'll love you for all times

Please reach out and call sons, for what ever that need
My love for you wont stop, till this body no longer breaths

Don't shed the tears sons and please, don't watch me leave

Remember I will be right here for you,
Anytime you need

With all that I am I love you
We will get through this!
together,
Mom

Well written but if she loved her sons so much and hated her life so much, why did she leave the poor sons behind? I would think that such devotion would mean either a>toughing it out b>stealing away with the boys. Just comments. Nicely written.
