I watched as she collapsed
Her ****** expression, the sadness in those eyes
the tears that just poured and ran like a waterfall down her cheeks
How she yelled out for her mother that was no longer living on earth, but in our hearts.
"Take me instead!"
My heart crashed.
I turned around, not being able to take the words I just heard or what I just saw.
I walked away, I could feel several eyes watching me as
the tears continued to pour down my cheeks and soak my shirt.
Inside I was screaming, "Take me instead!"
