An Orphan Born Of Time

This is for my Mother who lost her remaining parent ( her Mother)this Mothers day:

An orphan born of time is she
The sands of time did shift,
reshaping her identity

Alone! No Mother! An orphan in this land!

Cruel time. You've had your way.
And now, the orphan you've created is the tender for to pay

You've claimed your price
She's locked in time
Henceforth an orphan

And I know

that one day

this sad lament

will be mine.

I wish you were here. Like you wouldn't believe. My heads in my hands. I'm starting to grieve. Why did you go. And leave me this way. I wish it was me. Then you could stay. I'm lost and alone.

Omg you never know. When that call will come. It's never ever expected. It always strikes you dumb. Omg must be the shock. My head hurts me so. All the thoughts rush around.

My Song.

Just close your eyes, You'll be alright, Come morning light, You and I'll be safe and sound. - Safe and Sound Please don't leave me. I need you we all do. You can't die not now.

Goodnight

No use knocking Now the door has been closed, You took your citrus bite As was supposed. You fell asleep For a thousand years Like Sleeping Beauty Only many more tears.

Cancer.

It's a silent killer, A violent killer, It crushes you like glass. It makes you hopeless, Makes you gutless, Something I wish I could pass.

Unprepared

This wound would be the deepest. This wound would be the worst. This wound would test his mortality. This wound would leave him cursed.

Soft beeping, Chemical air, You shouldn't be here, Life's unfair, Nurses whisper, Flowers lie, Beside your body, Please don't die... Gentle eyes, And greying hair, How will I cope, With you not...

If You Could See Me Now

If you could see me now. I hope that you would both be proud. Of the person i've become. As you look down from your cloud. I hope i've lived up to your hopes. And havent made real your fears.
