You said,
You only have one Mummy.
I’m your biggest fan.
You are part of me like I am part of you—a fingernail, you said.
I hope I see you in my dreams more.
Free and happy and beautiful (like you were before).
I guess I will keep thinking about you every day.
You’ll appear in the things I say.
I’ll start doing things more
Your way.
Turning into my mother no longer sounds so bad.
I hope it’s long before my life will end,
But when it does,
I hope I see you again.
