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.
