At the Foot of Her Bed
Standing there at the foot of your bed
I cried listened and shook my head
With no idea of what next to do
Except make sure that you feel the Love we have for you
All you wanted was to get away
Pass at home is what you'd always say
To the staff you are completely mean
The person you are I've never seen
I left with a more then a broken heart
To find forgiveness where do I start
Like a knife carving in my chest
Maybe I am not strong enough for this test
You are the mother that I never had
Always sticking with me good or bad
Now I watch as you slowly dwindle away
Not being able understand 1/2 of what you say
I spend each day fighting guilt and shame
Can't push away that I am to blame
Please forgive me if you will
There's no doubt I LOVE YOU still
If there was more that I could do
You have to know I give my life for you!
And when this run come to an end
Still Love to you every day I will send!
