Mom, I love you

I called my mother last night 
And she was not feeling well 
Though she didn't say it 
But by her voice, I can tell

I felt so heartbroken 
I wish there is something I can do 
The only thing that came to mind 
Was to say, mom, I love you

And it had me thinking 
As I sat there for a while 
How many sleepless nights she spent 
Taking care of me as a child

Wish I could give her the world 
But what good would that do
So I wipe a tear from my eyes 
And said mom I love you

I know she is grieving 
Since my father died 
And thought the pains keep growing 
She never let it show outside

She would talk about my father 
And stare at the sky so blue 
And when she gets lost for words 
So I said mom dad love you

I know one day the call will come 
That she had joined my father too 
And as we lay her to rest 
I will say, mom, I love you

So if you are one of the blessed 
To have your parents with you 
it would make them feel so happy, 
To hear you say I love you

The things our parents did for us 
And they never let us knew 
So lets us all thank them 
By saying, mom and dad, I love you
