A song I have really loved throughout the years is Francesca Battistelli's "Angel by Your Side". When I was trying to think of a title for this post, this song popped in my head. I want to put the lyrics below so you can see exactly why this song fits this post.
I can't say that everything's okay 'Cause I can see the tears you're crying And I can't promise to take the pain away But you can know I won't stop trying
I'll be the angel by your side I will get you through the night I'll be the strength you can't provide on your own 'Cause when you're down and out of time And you think you've lost the fight Let me be the angel The angel by your side
I know it feels like you're running out of faith 'Cause it's so hard to keep believing But if I can bring a smile back to your face If for a moment, you'll forget all about it
I'll be the angel by your side I will get you through the night I'll be the strength you can't provide on your own 'Cause when you're down and out of time And you think you've lost the fight
Let me be the angel The angel by your side
'Cause this won't be the last time You'll need a little hope But I want to be the first to let you know
I'll be the angel by your side I will get you through the night I'll be the strength you can't provide on your own 'Cause when you're down and out of time And you think you've lost the fight Let me be the angel The angel by your side
My Mom is my angel. She is my best friend in the whole world. She works so hard day and night to provide for my family, keep the house nice, and do everything for me and my brother. When I am weak, she is strong. I tell her everything and I know I can always count on her to be there. I will never be able to repay her for the women she has been for me in my life. She is my angel. She is always by my side even if she cannot take my pain away, she never fails to bring a smile to my face or a little hope into my life. Without her in my life, I would be completely lost. I don't know how she does all she does balancing work, our house, and my brother and I. It would be easy for her to give up and be less of my mom, or work less, but somehow she does it all without ever leaving my brother and I behind. She is always first and foremost our Mom. No matter what is going on in our lives, or in hers, she is there. I hope one day I can be that person to someone. To be their Angel like she is mine. I hope through this post, I can show her just a piece of the love and appreciation I have for her. It is something small, but she deserves the world.
