Mama, Im here alone
Scared as can be.
You're on the living
room floor out cold.

Mama, I am on my
way to daddy's now.
I miss you already

Mama its my first birth
-day with out you, i need
you here by my side.

Mama Im in fourth grade
I am a Junior Police Officer,
I hope you're proud.

Mom, I graduated from
elementary school. I wish
you were there to see me.

Mom, I made it to rank
one in ninth grade!
I just might be valedictorian,
wont you be proud!

I met this boy today Mom,
I like him & he likes me (I think),
don't worry I'll remember our talks.

I got accepted into a summer
program mom, and guess what...
Its at STANFORD!

I wish you were here,
I need you near.
And yet you being here
is my worst fear.
