Teardrops staring at the smog-filled night, I lie awake anticipation clutches my heart fear opens my eyes-- warmth oozing out of my flesh, visions of red stray in my mind a gunshot, a bloodcurdling scream opening my eyes, that little chick which I smothered with thick love holds the cold barrel of death confusion and panic--a question: why? I find no answer as his steps softly fade into nothingness raspy breaths emanate from me so much to say, but remain speechless and I gaze into the white sliver of the black night’s sky yet, as I leave this world to join the realm of another, my body feels no more.. it is my heart... my heart which has suffered-- envisioning my sweet angel one tear I shed.
Reason for writing:
it just came to me one night at about one o'clock in the morning and the emotions that go through a mother's mind if she were to be hurt or betrayed by her own son...
