A chorus resounds in my ears
I recognize the voice

Oh! How sweet the melody!
That put me to sleep every night
And opened doors to my beautiful dreamland


A chorus resounds in my ears
This song now lives in my memory
For I no longer hear it at bedtime
My mother, the singer, has gone to rest...in peace

In my world
Dance was life
Music was breath


In that world
I lost my balance
And broke my cord,

Oops! Sorry ma’am, Miss. “Your own is even better” Not here to compare conditions  Not here to measure situations  Not here for any of the ‘tions’  She just wanted a listening ear And an empathetic mind 


She tried to show you  But you wouldn’t see She tried to tell you  But you wouldn’t listen


Ę pèlé ooo Mr. “I’ve been through worse” Life doesn’t revolve around you She just wanted help Her soul screamed for love!


We all have our struggles But life would feel lighter  if only we’re there for one another
