Poem
As the tears fall down from my face, I think about that magical place. You took me there when I was young, but that was before the pain begun. You walked me down the road of life, preparing me to be a mother and a wife. You would hold my hand and say have no fear, mommy's not going anywhere, I'll always be here. But that was wrong and so were you, you left me mom, what am I to do? I've been told life goes on, but it can't be, because you're still gone. I pray at night to see you in my dreams, but you're never there, just terror and screams. How could this happen, how could this be? The woman I love so dearly up and left me. I go to the grave every afternoon, I sang our favorite song, it was a nice little tune. But since your gone I've changed some things, about marriage and babies and diamond rings. Those things are not important to me now, I ask myself, how did this happen, when and how? You let yourself go to that place in the sky, but it happened so sudden mom, please tell me why? You left me a note by your bed, you wrote moments before you ended up dead. Please tell me why you took your own life, you were a such loving mother and a dear wife. You didn't write much, just a few lines, to tell me you love me, and it would be better in time. But now that your gone, it's not better at all, I just lay in my bed, I scream and I bawl. To know what you done, it's too hard to bare, I stand at your grave with a cold desperate stare. You were a daughter, a loving mother, and a dear wife, Why did you do it mom, why did you use that knife? I wonder everyday, it's all I think about, There's only one thing it could be, without a doubt. You went to a dark place, filled with murder and thugs, I know why I lost you mom, you could no longer fight the drugs. You could have reached out and told someone before, now it's too late, death has already knocked and opened your door. I'm sorry, so sorry, I could not see, the reason you are dead is because of me. I wasn't there to help when you needed me most, Now I can't see you, not an image or a ghost. I've answered my question, I just waited too long, I know my mistake now, but it's too late, your gone.
