Love Loss
She brought me into this world
So how could it not change me when she left
I was left her to grow
Into the best thing she’ll never see
I never imagined my mother would leave me
Especially not at age 15
Another year nearly over
Her birthday was on its way ready to bring the joy of 41
She was like my blanket at night
Putting me to sleep, reminding me she loved me
I wish I told her more
That I loved her more than anything
I had to watch her wilt away, like a tree losing its leaves
Her beautiful face changed from pink to pale
Before I had time to react I was at a funeral
All she is now is in my memories and nightmares
I was born, she was diagnosed with cancer
I grew, she wilted
My years passed with ease, she fought those same years with the strength of prey running from it’s killer
It was stalking her like a lion for years. It found its time to strike
She will never leave me
Her brown hair and blue eyes are always in my head
But I know she would want me to live as best I can
Till I see her golden face in heaven again.
