Please Stay With Us, Mom

I never imagined a future

Without you by my side

I thought tomorrow would always come

And I would see your smile again

But suddenly one day

We heard the name of your illness

And the ordinary days we knew

Were changed forever

You must have been scared inside

More than anyone could know

But you always smiled and said

“I'm okay”

Just to make sure

We would never lose our hope

Please stay alive, Mom

I still have so much

I want to do for you

I haven’t even said

“Thank you” the way I should

The surgery was successful

But the fear still remains

If there is a God watching over us

Please… don’t take her away from us

When I was a child

On the nights I had a fever

You stayed awake until morning

Watching over me

You raised us all by yourself

There must have been painful days

There must have been nights

When you wanted to cry

But you always chose to smile

And now that same mother

Who gave us everything

Is fighting a battle

In a hospital bed

“If I could take your pain away

I would”

I have thought that

So many times

On the day of your surgery

I kept looking at the clock

Again and again

I felt helpless

Because all I could do was pray

Then I heard the words:

“The surgery was successful”

And tears fell from my eyes

But my true wish was never just that…

It wasn’t only about surviving

I just want you to come home

Healthy and smiling again

That is all I ask

Mom…

Please don’t leave us

Please keep living

I want you to see

Your grandchildren’s future

I want you to see

Our family’s tomorrow

You raised us alone

With a love bigger than anything

And we still haven’t given back

Even a little of what you gave us

So please don’t give up

No matter how many times

Despair comes our way

We will fight beside you

Please stay with us a little longer

There are still words

I need to tell you

“Thank you”

“I’m sorry”

“I love you”

I haven’t said them enough

So please…

Live, Mom

Keep living

Stay with us

Someday again

I want our whole family

To laugh together

Just like before
