She sleeps…
Her gentle breathing makes her serene.
She dreams…
Nice memories, loved one, inspirations.
She sighs…
The promise of everlasting peace.
She stirs…
With all my heart, I pray…
There is still hope.

She was a great cook
a good wife
the best mother
If you need a friend
If you need a sister
Someone to talk to
for a decision
for something serious
or just plain silly
she’s here
She’s a strong woman
with such great will
She’s a fighter
She would battle for her life
for us
She wouldn’t want to leave us
But, God has plans
And so, mother, we are letting you go
Thanks for your kindness
Your guidance
Your love
Thanks for the memories
Good bye, my dearest
And, to our good Lord
Thanks for her 51 years!

Heart beating wild
Stomach aches
Her knees shake
She’s in terrible fright
Slowly, she lifts her fist
Onto the door, she knocks.

The urge to run
Part of her screams….
Decency!
She loses her color
But stands firmly by the door
Courage will not fail her!

It’s a mistake
Soon, her regret
She’s a fool!
Yet, who can blame this soul?
Waiting comes to an end
Finally, her heart speaks.

No promises
Some rejections
More heart-breaks
The yearning must be answered
Shattered spirit as it is
Love suffering must end.

She sees his face
Pure innocence
So naïve
How could he not notice?
I love you! Her soul weeps
Quivering, she spits the words.

She looks at him
Calm eyes of his
No replies
Unreadable expressions
Agonizing heart beats
Awkward silence ….
