Thoughts for my young cousin drowned in a fishing tragedy nearly two years ago.. aged only 9. I am so scared mommy I can’t see your face I’m lost in this darkness And have no space I need to touch you mommy I want to hold you tight But I’m struggling for breath And I’m losing the fight Why can’t I breathe mommy Why can’t I smile Why can’t I just keep living awhile Will God take care of me Will God be nice Will he mind if I tell him I don’t like rice I have to go now mommy I have to fly But I’ll come and visit If you promise not to cry I love you mommy…. Be kind at heart....for everyone you meet has their own battle to fight......... |

Dear RDB, That's a very sad poem about a sad event. Some get taken early. It's a dice roll for all of us. Bobby |

OH Roniece, this has made me cry… it’s so damn unfair. This world makes no sense to me sometimes. You have written this in a way that I can FEEL myself as your cousin, scared and drowning… I’m so sorry for you and your family’s loss of a beautiful child so full of life… Tammy<333 |
