I wish, I Wish...I wish things could have been different, But life can be harsh and unmkind, And no matter how we think it will be, It is never as it is in our mind. We hope that life will treat us kindly, And we accept there is harsh and bad, And sometimes, like now, it seems to be... Oh, so very, very sad. My mum is the best in the world, And she has her flaws like us all, But to see her like this, and suffering so, I often ask God to give her His call. And remove her from this misery, Remove the pain, and anger and spite, And give her the release she asks for, Please let her fall asleep one night... ...No longer to wake up to more pain, No longer to struggle to breathe, No longer to wish to die every day! No longer for her to have to grieve! For she grieves for the life she had, And for my father who she loved so, She wants to be out of her misery, She really does want to ‘go'! She keeps telling me she's had enough, And that she wants to leave this place, And now she's been put in a home... You should see the look on her face. It's truly heartbreaking to see her, So small, and sad and bitter and weak, She is struggling so very much, And its peace she is trying to seek. But peace just will not happen, So she struggles each day in misery, And it's not that I want her to pass on, But it's where she just wants to be! I know everyone has their problems, Daily ones, painful ones and more, But 5 stone in weight, her body twisted... She just simply can't take any more. So each night I ask of God one thing, To take her out of her miserable life, Give her release, let her have peace, Rid her of unhappiness and strife! So she continues to wish, So I continue to pray... So that she can have what she wants! So she doesn't suffer one more day. Because I love her, and she's my mum.
