3 Strikes To My Heart

You should have been there.
You should have seen the sadness  
on my face.

The sadness that smells of
sweet neglection.
Forgotten!

Forgotten in the mist of
your own life.
You have your life

Remember!
Remembering those words,
I have other children to worry about.

I tell myself that I am fine and 
I even meditate to relieve myself of stress.
Silence!
