Losing a mother to breast cancer.

The scent of Mummy close to me,
The tears she dries when I am scared,
She teaches me to bake and sow,
Loves me when no one else has cared.
Gently singing, soft, sweet tunes,
To chase my night time fears away,
Reads me stories endlessly,
Dances,laughs and helps me paint.
Builds daisy chains with muddy hands,
Holds my hand though every fear,
Builds castles on the soft, white sand,
Dries away my sorry tears.
But perfect love is stolen now,
Years before it's time,
Soul screaming, 'Mummy don't leave me!'
Cancer; the monster that steals lives.
We were meant to grow old together,
But life decided different fate,
I'm screaming, begging God, 'hear me, PLEASE...
'Don't take my mummy away.'
Fear, horror, shock all running,
Through these juvenile veins,
Grief, sadness deepest loss,
Without her I won't be the same.
My spirit prepares for Mummy's passing,
I tell her how much I'll miss her,
As her arms open wide, stretching,
out to hold me one more time,
'Don't worry, don't cry, my darling'
'Be strong my angel, you'll be fine'
It's too much to bear, I'm only nine.
'I'll save a special place for you,
right next to me, when it's your time,
we'll be together, I promise. I love you,
always and forever remember that. Don't cry'.
And Mummy exhales one last time,
Her hand becomes, limp; she's gone...
And she lets go of mine.
Another Mummy stolen away,
How many more must face this pain?
'I love you Mummy.' I whisper.
'One day we'll be together. Again.'
But now I face this life alone,
Counting the moments 'til I am old,
And God takes me into the sky,
So I can be at Mummy's side.

if i could cry i would be.

She past you, but doesn't notice you.
Drained from emotion
she waits till death grasps her.
She faces it with no fear but rather welcomes it.

wow. that made me cry.
I'm so sorry for ur loss.
I was making a connection while i was reading and it might give you some encouragement to read Psalms 55 in a bible. It talks about sufferings and heartache.

Great write (library)

An interesting poem. Very vivid in nature.
You grasped the very nature of the ideas you were trying to tell your readers.
Very nice read.

P.S
I am sorry for your lose. Keep your chin up. It gets better over time.
