Grief

hush, Serina, hush
seeing the sighs and sobs flowing from your face is torture to me
don't cry, mommy is here
speak quickly, my child
sweet little Serina, you needn't fear
we're going to our new home
a six-pointed starlit heaven
we'll be safer there
of course, you'll like it
we're not leaving anything behind
your favourite doll Sarah... she'll be there
your teddy bear Muffy can come, too
you can wear your favourite baby blue dress every day
and mommy can listen to her Benny Goodman and Louis Armstrong records for hours and hours
and we will see daddy
he'll have no gunshot wound hurting him anymore
it must have healed by now
no, we won't have our house, but we'll have a better house
a house made of cloud mist
one with a white picket fence and a few willow trees
and you can have that kitten you've always wanted
and the view will be gorgeous
the flamboyance of the sun shall look brilliant in its ocean blue sky
don't cry, mommy is here
look at that Nazi with the gun
he thinks he's doing something bad to us
but he's not
he's sending us to see daddy
there's that sparkling smile I know
hold mommy tighter, Serina
hold me tighter so we can get there at the same time
we'll soon be in our paradise
our six-pointed starlit heaven
don't be sad, sweetie
you're not going to forget anything
because we're leaving behind nothing to forget
I love you, Serina
I lo...

painful to even imagine... excellent exercise they had in your high school class. Your writing expresses such sorrowful truth. Well done!
Thanks!
Peace! |
