It was the little things really
Peck on my cheek
As I still slept, on your way out
I remember each one
Holding my hand in the theater
Warmth of shared comfort
Holding your hand in the hospital
Joy and fear handled together
Watching you graduate
Seeing you succeed
Making you laugh
Making me laugh
Seeing me through the crowd
Bringing me peace, finally
Being my first and only
Planning tomorrows with you
Smile after smile
Memory after memory
Where did we go wrong
Why can't we mend it
I finally got you into running
Only to have you run away
Some days it's simply too much
Some days like today
