Let her remember,

That I loved her the best,

More than anyone, or anything,

And more than all the rest.

Let her remember,

That I loved to sing,

Loud and clear, with no fear,

As fresh as the day could bring.

Let her remember,

I wore my heart on my sleeve,

That I took a million photos,

Knowing one day, I’d have to leave.

Let her remember,

I loved the morning sun,

That sunsets could take my breath away,

And make me feel I’d won.

Let her remember,

I treasured our time together,

That by her side, and hand in hand,

I could live forever.

Let her remember,

My joy to hear her read,

So young, so fresh so smart,

My time was all she’d need.

Let her remember,

My hopes for her were vast,

And only got much stronger,

As she grew up so fast.

Let her remember,

The pride I felt in me,

That I was her mother,

And she was mine to see.

Let her remember,

That she completed me,

That every day together,

I felt I was free.

Let her remember,

We’d always be together,

Because inside her heart,

I would live forever.
