I wish I would have been easier when I was younger
And listened close to my mother's wise words.
I wish I could have been the perfect daughter without doing things the hard way
And flying with the birds.
Away I would go and down I would come again.
Always falling on my face,
Embarrassing my mother and myself
And falling farther from her grace.
I wish I could make up for all the hours that I missed being able to share your life
Instead of being the way I was.
I wish I knew then what I know now
And all the trouble that I caused.
I know I never show you mom, what it is I really feel. how many things you sacrificed and cared for me
Even though headaches were never part of the deal.
I wish I could have never made a single mistake in my life.
I wish I could have avoided all the agony and strife.
We are not close mom, like we shoud be by now.
And even after all I have done, you should take a bow.
I wish I knew what I could do to make you like me again.
I wish in time and again for you to be my very best friend.
Time changes everyone or so they say.
And I am wishing all of these things for you on this day.
I apologize from deep within my heart for all the problems that you had.
To honestly say mother, I am so very sorry for being so bad.
I wish from this day mom that we can just forgive each our own mistakes.
I wish for a new friendship and trust for us both to make.
So from the heart of the oldest one.
The daughter you gave birth to who, while raising, was not any fun.
