Appamma,from my beginning until your end, You were by my side, my first best friend. I never expressed it when you were here Though my love and admiration were sincere. You taught me more than I ever knew. You gave me reason to continue the fight, Saying a better day comes after the night. Where would I be if you not around? Likely adrift in the sea of life, drowned. I am forever grateful for your love, And I know you’re looking down from above. The years will always roll on by and time will always pass, but every memory I have of you will definitely always last my life time. I know you are with your best friend watching us over. I love you so much. I really cannot wait until the day that I see you again. This is just a small goodbye till we meet again.
