Unspoken we may have,

Unforgotten in my heart,

I had promises to keep

I had promises to keep, for Mommy.

I’ve tried to be a man that I am not,

Tonight I asked her in the sky.

“Did I do all right?”

In the pitch black sky, I saw a brief smile,

From a  glimmering star looking down at me.

Across the Milky Way , a whisper travelled,

“My second one, you’ve done well. I am proud”

             Requiescat in Pace, Mater.
