Without

Without a whisper you said goodbye
Without movement I felt you die.
Without a loving mother's breath
Without a reason to explain your death.

Without a thought my tears began
Without a struggle they quickly ran.
Without a mother's love I could not cope
Without her love and without hope.

Without doubt, yours is a sad and touching poem, Anna. The loss of someone dear to us is not easy to explain, but you managed that with an able pen. ~ Best regards // paul
