I remember decades ago, I asked why she gave me to her sister, which she answered and what were the things she did not like in me or what I did or did not do to her instead of telling other people that she responded it was my father and then silence. I told her, Papa just followed the things she did and she never uttered a word that the complete silence was deafening, piercing that numbed me, made me shiver for deep down I knew she would not answer and I would not know at all. She wanted to die at home that the night she was discharged from the hospital, I went to see her and had a chance to be alone with her for twenty five minutes for I did not want to be in the house full of people who had or still had the Corona virus. I stood beside her bed, leaned and caressed her, lovingly stroking her hair, touching her face, shoulders, arms and holding her hand that I had to let go to seat across her and she reached her hand to hold it longer, while I stood beside her until I had to leave. I told her “I love you” and she answered “I love you too”. That short sweet moment was a week before she passed on. I visited her three more times, each time with so much fear for my other siblings, who also contracted the virus, were there too. The last time I saw her, we were all in her small room, shoulder to shoulder, each of us taking turns to have a moment with her. It was the moment I could not comprehend, a sad, somber one. When it was my turn, I told her “I love you” that she did not respond to and all I got was a stare from her that I gave her a look asking her why she was doing this and I walked away. Was it because my siblings were there and she wanted to show to everybody her indifference to me that they already knew? Why? a question that would never be answered for two days later she passed on and my hope of knowing was crushed. I arranged and took care of her pre-paid memorial service making sure everything would go well and according to her wishes. That was almost three months ago, when she passed and sadly I have not shed a tear for her; but a tear fell when one morning I awoke and thought how my hope for her answers went to pieces, totally forlore and now, I hold a forlorn hope in my heart. 4/16/21 This or That, Vol 2 Poetry Edward Ibeh Title Chosen: Forlorn Hope Checked: PS Grammar checker
