A Cozy Little Room by Mary Etta Metcalf

deep within lies a place for my mother
a place where she is no longer a victim
alzheimers cant find her anymore
within my heart is a cozy little room

she is whole…she is young…she is happy
there she resides in peaceful bliss
no more pain…no more fears to worry her
within my heart is a cozy little room

yes i have enshrined my human mother
accepted her human ways…she tried her best
gave her a place of honor for all she wanted to be
within my heart is a cozy little room

she was not perfect…she knew this to be true
but she gave it a shot…her very best she knew
and for that i honor her for i inherited her ways
within my heart is a cozy little room

she was my mother and i love her still
felt her regrets at her mistakes
felt her pride when she knew she did well
within my heart is a cozy little room

she didnt know the legacy she left me
but i am proud to be her daughter
knowing she was only human doing her best
within my heart is a cozy little room
