| Dear Mommy, I Love You by Rachel Kendra |
| ||||||
| His mother was always there for him She taught him to read and to swim She kissed his knees when they got scraped She gave him medicine when his tummy ached She watched him climb trees and play football Her heart stopped every time she saw him fall She framed the pictures that he drew They said, "Dear Mommy, I love you" She signed him up for Little League She made sure he had his glove before they could leave Whenever he looked up, she was in the stands Wearing a shirt that said #1 fan She watched him grow up through the years How quickly they passed brought her to tears She thought, "My little boy will soon be a man" As she took him to his first dance He soon was interested in the opposite sex She always told him personality first, looks next She taught him to be gentlemanly and chivalrous Hold open doors, give up his seat on the bus She told him never to break a girl's heart Never lead her on, never be smart She said, "Treat every girl like a queen Adnd you will meet the girl of your dreams" She watched him leave for his first date She called after him, "Don't be late" She waited up for hours after his curfew Then she realized, then she knew She ran to the phone when it rang The policeman said it was a gang Her son was driving the girl home At the point she steadied the phone They jumped out when they saw the girl She listened as the story unfurled They held a gun to her head But he said, "You touch her and you're dead" He tried to pull them off her Seeing her like that was more than he could endure Then they all attacked him The girl could go, she was free again She ran into a grocery store With her hair a mess and her dress torn She dialed 911, telling them to hurry She knew his mother would begin to worry The police rushed to the place He had blood smeared all over his face He said, "Do this for me before I die For I know I will, no matter how hard I try Tell my mother she was the best Because of her, I aced every test I know the pain is very real If you were to die, I don't know how I would deal You were the perfect mom, you did everything right Cleaned me up if I got in a fight But now there's nothing you can do Don't feel guilty, I don't want you to I only did what you said To see this girl safely to her bed I only did what you told me Be kind, courteous, and gentlemanly I'm sorry, I have to leave you now You must make it through somehow But just remember the pictures that I drew 'Dear Mommy, I love you.'
