being an orphan
mother has been gone less than a day
her favorite time of day was daybreak, I think
I walk outside into the sun, but do not feel any better
there is something horrible about not having your mother
I did not realize it before
because I was never an orphan
but now I am
I sit on a bench feeling despair
I am all alone now
no one likes me the way she did
I cannot be cheered up
Sadness overwhelms me, my heart is breaking
It is horrible being an orphan
Until yesterday
I never
knew….
