Mama, It's Okay by Catherine Palmer Paton (in memory of teen son reflecting support)

Mama, It's Okay if you still miss me

Mama I know I'm still in your heart

Papa I see you workin'

Making Your way through each day

Papa I'm proud to be your son

even though I had to step away

Sisters I hear you sharing

Your hopes, your dreams, your fears

Sisters Thank you for bringing

Your love, your help, your tears

Brothers, all who feel they are my friends

We strive and touch the stars

Our hearts soar like eagles

In living fully and through scars

Grandpas, your deep love keeps me rooted

From one realm to the next

Your steadfast care sees me through

Good times and bad, for that I'm blessed

Grandmas, thank you for your strong love

In the many ways you  cared

Guiding me in life with with tenderness

When I stumbled and when I dared

Friends,we're still like family

Living in eachother's heart

We walked on earth together

 And grow as we live our part
