Goodbye,My Mother

I will never see you the same way I will not hug you like I had before I loved you,but that trust was broken, shattered into a thousand pieces,the shards reflecting a broken relationship, impossible to piece back together I will remember the songs we sang,I will remember the smile that shone each day But we will never speak,never see each other again. The words we spoke were harsh,opening old wounds,ripping new ones in their wake One day I will leave, traveling thousands of miles,but that is nothing compared to the distance that separates our hearts I will love you,as I always have,but when a heart is broken by the person who pieced it back together,it will never be the same. The land-line that was my only connection to you was severed,but that that was the only connection you had to me. The darkness from a sun that once shone brightly,engulfs everything that I once was,who I once was. Tears fall down my face as I spiral down a dark abyss.

I cannot imagine, and I am so sorry, Isabelle. Hopefully writing Mom poems could be therapeutic?
