To Mom (Let Me Say)

I know it feels like you need to tuck tail and run
To get away from everything under the sun
And would it hurt if you never took a breath
Do you wonder who would miss you even in death
Let me say
I know you fear the walls on either side
What have you done to deserve this roller coaster ride
And would it help to close your eyes to shade the drop
Open back up and see you are back on the top, then again...
Do you need to be some place but just can't get there
Disappear let it sink in that they just don't care
Let me say
I want you here for now and for ever more
No one, no one can ever give me more
I hope you know who you are
There are many, but you are my brightest star
Give it a moment and you will see
How much you mean to me
