Lose You Mama



Lose You Mama

I didn't just lose you mama
I lost myself too.
I lost our life
Our future.
I didn't just lose you mama
A part of me died that day too.
I lost my sense of safety
I lost my happy
I lost my faith.
I didn't just lose you mama
I lost my best friend
I lost my entire world.


In dedication of
Jennifer Ann Cook
