You'll Be At My Side

This is a poem for my mom. Rewritten.

I'll Be At Your Side
Watching from a distance,
you watch me as I sleep.
If I have a bad dream,
I open my eyes and
know you will be there
at my side to comfort me.

Closing your eyes,
you remember something.
I was afraid of the water,
but when you pushed me from behind,
I finally learned how to swim.

No matter what happens,
you will always love me.
When you die,
I will always remember you.

Closing your eyes,
you remember a memory.
I was afraid of riding my bike.
When you pushed me from behind,
I finally became brave.
