You and I are so very different Not always have we agreed But your selflessness doesn't go unnoticed And you are always there if I'm in need So many times I've tried to tell you How it is that I really feel Both our lives are forever changing And sometimes life feels so surreal Spoken words don't always come easy So I'll write my feelings instead And I hope that by the time I've finished You will like what you have read There was the time I battled depression And you were never far from my side My life was so very confusing then It was with you that I needed to hide The tragic loss of my father Saw me retreat within myself All alone I battled my demons Sometimes feeling I was beyond help I had never felt so lonely Even though I knew how much you cared Along with Dad went a very big part of me My guiding light was no longer there But to you I will always be indebted For all the things you have done for me I just wanted to say 'I love you' And show how much you really mean to me * * * I wrote this for my mother, Shirley who has helped me through some very difficult times in my life Suetang |

(BIG HUGGGSSSSSSS) Oh my gosh, now I'm flodding in tears, you truly are no doubt an angel to us all as you are to your mother always! (sigh) I know how you feel for when I was a little boy I was always depressed every day and my mother was the only one who ever believe din me and for that I am thankful I had someone to believe in me and love me! (kiss on cheek) Your mom will always love you so much as you love her, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sue, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

This is a beautiful poem for your mother, I love when poets explain a bit about the poem. We can understand it but sometimes there is a deeper meaning that gets lost. I also can write much more expressively than I can speak to someone. Great poem Sue, floria Floria |

Sue: I'm sure your mother is very touched by this lovely poem you wrote for her. What a blessing for you to have her to help you through such difficult times. Betty Lou Hebert |
