When will I see you again

 
She places her life In the care of her doctor A shot and a haze fills her eyes And her thoughts wonder. Images arise Inside her, she remembers When twice upon a time She had carried them. Had given birth to them Now grown, with children of their own In a couple of hours it would be gone It was for the best. A matter of health Yet eyes now shut, her heart wails Wasn’t the first time she needed doctors A smile’s on her face She can feel him near Her better half gone before her Would not mind joining him. Softly, he whispers, “Where is that woman so brave? That fought through many a pain, Survived each time. It’s not your time yet You are still needed, and you know I’m always there, and I’ll wait For the day we are Together again.” In honor of my mother, having surgery today, a hysterectomy. I was home last month for 2 weeks, wish I could have stayed longer. Speedy recovery, mom!
