Pleading

My Love,
You look very tired
Your eyes are bulged and sore
Why, couldn't you find the comb?
Your hair needs a groom
Hasn't your sister ironed your clothes?
Who cook your meals?
Has mama come home?
My love,
Enough is enough
Stop all my therapies no more chemo’s
Please,
Please take me home.
Yes I know I only have few days more
Let’s sing our favorites tonight
If can, we sway in the dim candle light
Lie side by side and watch the moon smiles 
You need a rest
My Love
