Dedicated to Mrs. Gloria Davis
You were there fo r me when I needed someone to talk to You understood me when no one else did You made sure I had everything I needed.
When I needed help with something you would gladly help me.
Now you are gone and things have changed I remember when / had problems you would
always let me speak my mind. When you were sick I helped you with your medication.
I know why you always told me things not to do. I understood that they were fo r my own good and
you always bought thingsfo r me when you neededfo r yourself.
A day does not go by without me thinking what it would be like if you were still here. Because you are gone now I try to live everyday
the best I can. Everyday you are on my mind. I just had to write this so someone who would know how much I miss and love you.
