When Death Comes Knocking

That day has been branded when my world did stop
I experienced new meaning to that word called shock
How that womb through which I was first brought into life
has now been rendered so void having gone under the knife
While doctors and medicine had been one form of plight
living with cancer had imposed its own fright
So when her inner will to live seemed to be giving up the fight
My world around me began to look very bleight
What words and what feelings can overcome
that moment of emptiness standing under the sun
How naked and shallow does all reality take
when your meaning for life gives you nothing but ache
What reflections would weigh, when my tears started
other than my mother before me, my mother now departed
A soul has been released from our world below
no longer to bring me her smile with her loving hello

I am so sorry for your loss. I just recently lost my Granny to cancer and it was devastating. Your poem is really good and brought tears to my eyes. Thank you so much for sharing. |

Very touching indeed. No one else can take the place of a mother. We all go through this painful experience, at one time or another. All loved ones depart, but leave behind the beautiful memories to be cherished and shared.
