Free


Sickness consumes her body and soul

A woman too young to die

Fighting the battle to stay alive

Day in and Day out she lies - unable

to do the things she used to

Hiding behind fear and strength

She pushes ahead

Time is her enemy

Nothing left to do

Her grasp on the world

is loosening

Holding onto the memories of the past - she

drifts in efforts to live a better tomorrow.

Free or pain.

Good-bye mom!
