    Prayer of a Son

    Does anyone know?
    Where a mother's love goes,
    When the angels,
    Come and take her soul,
    Is it true?
    Or am I a fool,
    That I still believe,
    The way I do,
    Sometimes late at night,
    I sit in the darkness,
    Beneath the moonlight,
    I call your name,
    But you do not hear,
    I reach for you,
    But your not there,
    I keep my feelings,
    To myself,
    I put my heartache,
    Upon a shelf,
    In the confines,
    Of the quiet room, I cry,
    Does anyone know?
    Where a mother's love goes,
    When the angels,
    Come and take with them,
    Her loving soul,
    Is it true?
    Or am I the fool,
    I still believe,
    The way I do.
