I told you I didn't love you with a smile on my face.
The smile quickly faded when I saw your heart break.
From internal bleeding, your eyes turned red,
As red as the handprint you wanted to leave on my cheek.
The cheek you used to kiss when you tucked me in; I remember your smile then.
I was ungrateful for anything you did for me,
The sacrifices.
I took your love for granted,
Wiped it off like lint on my shirt.
Now you're hurt.
I take it back,
All that I've said.
I don't mean none of it.
I love you, Mom,
More than words can say.
Thank you for everything,
Everything.

I'm Sorry Mom, I Do Love You
