Mid winter flower

by kelly tavern   Oct 24, 2006


Like a flower in mid winter
withered and frail
thats the memory i have left
house bound, in pain
wasting slowly away
in front of me
into the light slowly
for years after my life was for you
loving you with everything i had
until i couldn't give you anymore
I'm sorry i wasn't there more
i had my life then
young and afraid
when you was taken away
helplessly staring into the coffin
shedding a lonely tear
a tear of regret
for never getting to know the real person
the real you mother
mother, all my love will always be there for you, i guess the frost finally seeped into me, years of grieving for you has turned me x

    It flowed wonderfully:)

    Very touching read, the emotions and love portrayed in this, made the greif all the more harder to bear.

    It brought tears to my eyes,
    Keep it up,
    5/5 Elaine.
