I'll take my punishment, I'll do my time,
for all of my failings, all of them mine.
I hate myself for not being calm,
I'm sorry that my words caused you harm.
But if this is how destiny requires me to pay,
and If time is teaching me the way,
then I'm here and there'll be no fight,
I can't ever go back and make my wrongs, right.
I'm sorry from the depths of my soul,
It's now out of my control.
Your gone forever and time has won,
I will forever have to face what I have done.
I will face head on and take what I must,
I'm sorry I've failed you, im filled with disgust.
My beautiful mum and my best friend,
I failed you right up to the the end.
I should have stopped and held onto you,
I should have kissed and told you I love you.
I'm ashamed and broken and I can't repair what's done,
And now daily I feel the hurt from my own child, it's my time for some.
So I accept this path I paved, I will accept my pain.
What goes around comes around, its now my turn for the same.

Thank you, I love to hear how my words mean something to each person.
I had a beautiful relationship with my mum but when I look back I could have done more, life ,work, can and does, get in the way. Sadly we don't always notice this until it's too late. I'm sure if my mum was asked did I let her down, she'd smile and with her beautiful blue eyes would look straight at me without hesitation and answer, no, never ❤️
Very strong emotive words Sandra, we often have secrets we do not share with special peopl people and always regret that..
Andy
