You died over four years ago and it was the worst thing I/'/ve ever been through.
When they said you/'/d die, I felt helpless because there was nothing I could do.
The day before you died, "I love you" were the three words that I said.
When I saw you lying motionless, it was sad because I knew you were dead.

The doctors couldn/'/t save you after you became ill.
It took two years for this heart of mine to start to heal.
I still miss you and I have something to say.
I/'/ll always love you Mom, Happy Birthday.
