Joe Coalson Poet I do not know?

Mom

MOM
How ya been lately
Hopefully you
aren't medicating
I know lately 
your heart 
has been breaking
Death of ya man
ya Best friend 
I understand
But mom 
I can't stand
the way 
 You plan
over and
 over again
to end ya life
I don't understand 
you told us 
death is 
Where it starts
not the end
 but don't 
Let the dark in
the light 
is best man..
But your torn
 apart from
Memories of the
 things that
Weighed happiness
 in your heart
Centuries of plenty 
sing they cling
To your soul n 
bring you out
the unknown
Atleast
 I've been told..
You're the one 
who taught me 
everything I know
So why
you letting go
 you forgetting
I don't know
if I can be alone
I'll be froze
in snow or maybe
Ill dispose of my own 
miserable existence
of a soul
Mom this road
you've chose 
just goes
To darkness 
light is disposed
So please
 I plead
don't give up
 if I'm alone
Ill be
so weak
so please
listen to me 
Don't go 
till god frees
Your life 
do I have to bleed
Your the 
best mom 
 life would 
be so cold 
If I lost 
the only soul 
that gave a 
 when I 
Was alone 
mom please
just trust me 
I know
Your true 
love is gone 
yes its 
tough but your 
Stronger that that 
so good thoughts
Ought to have
enough draw 
for your pain
The times 
you stumble
across the walk
And fall start
to crawl up 
the hall 
just to be
In a ball.... 
On the floor
crying and screaming
God 
I cant take
This 
This stress anymore
Seized up
locked joints 
pain and suffering
for sure
I'm sorry for 
  your heart 
The door isn't 
open any more 
but like water
in the ocean
leaking till
It bust open
with emotion 
exploding corruptive
Corrosion
taking pills
 just hoping 
for death to 
Come but your 
eyes keep opening
God is showing
you your not ready
to go home 
see so
 much for us
in the trust
 of the holy
So mom
 don't go please
Just stay with us 
and hold me 
Like I was 
in your hands 
when they
 were folding
Or when you 
busted my ass 
in times
 of scolding
Just so you
know your right
about everything
 you've told me
you've showed me 
so mom
I'm ya
 baby forever
But ill always 
will be growing
promise you'll 
get better 
and I can see
 my momma glowing
before the kingdom 
of heaven opens 
The gates if
 I could see that
 I'd be over joy n
Could see that
 smile now
 I'm ok 
your with dad
 don't give up 
or feel trialed
