A Note Goodbye

A note goodbye A note Wrapped in an envelope Flew from under my door As I grabbed the knob. No name No return address Just a memory  That will haunt me Forever. Ripping this mystery open Without the slightest bit Of neatness. A letter Is what I pulled from This case. Written in perfect cursive With indication  Of tears  Upon the ink. From my mother Whom passes away So many years ago. "To my dearest daughter,  Tonight is my last night in this world The cancer is eating me alive While I suffer with my hairless head And my aching body.  This note will not be discovered For years to come, When it is in your hands Don't not share it with the world.  I love you, daughter. You were my everything. Never forget that.                With all my love,                       Mom" Tears soon fall upon  This message, Smearing all it's words And love.
