I picked up the phone to call u As i dailed ur # I had to stop Reality set in like a muhf@cka An' the tears began to drop Been a minute since i last talked to u An' still ur my best friend Always kept it real when i'm concerned U had my back until the end I still see u in the kitchen Cookin and givin' me advice An' u'd give it to me very bluntly Than kindly ask me to check the rice We had mad fun 2gether U wuz at all my volleyball games An' when i played in college U wuz in the stands screamin my name I told u the second i lost my virginity Not knowing if I should But u looked at me an' said, "Well baby, wuz it good?" U loved me unconditionally Regardless if i was good or bad If i was good...then shyt wuz good If not....u'd get muhf@ckin' mad But now i need to talk to u S i close my eyes an' start to speak An' pray my words r long enuff Cuz u linger far beyond my reach My life isn't going so good I'm stuck in somewhat of a spot I think i'm movin' forward But in reality i'm not I admit I did'nt help any I made some terrible mistakes But i've always been honest an' true to myself An' i always give more than I take So i'm askin' u to guide me Help me get over this hump in tha road Help me make it through this thing called life Please help me lighten the load Dayum yall its killin' me ta write this Tha tears from my eyes are flowin' Cuz when I open my eyes u won't be there Something i wuz already knowin' Then I realize i'll be aaight Cuz i see ya everyday In ur 4 grandchilden that i gave u That.....will never go away I've never met any woman That held it down the way u did An' i'm gonna hold it down too I gots to...... i'm ya kid There's nuthin' more I can say Except THANK YOU for bein' the realest bytch i've ever known I'm eternally grateful to be part of u One love, moms....see u when i get home RIP, I LOVE U MARIE VICTORIA KELSEY HARRIS.........2/7/49----12/18/95 _________________
