....Pull the Plug

My mom once said,
"If I should be put on Life Support,
I'm giving you a mission
please don't abort."
Then she paused for a minute
to give me a hug,
Then continued to say,
"Pull the plug."
Inside my heart
I began to shed tears,
For this is and/or was
one of my greatest fears.
On the outside
all I could do was nod my head,
And continue to rub her back
as she lay down in the bed.
I later enter my room
and turn off my CD,
And begin to wonder
what my life without mom would be.
I know the two roads
that I could possibly take,
One of them would let
the insane rage inside me awake.
The other road
would be the best way to go,
Because that's the road
that would inspire me to continue the show.
I feel like I want to cry
but I won't, I'll just return her hug,
But forever I'll hear her say to me
...."Pull the plug."

I am SO sorry!! My mother told all of us she didn't want to be on it, many, many times.....when she woke up after one horrifying spell, we told her we'd signed the papers....and she got really, really scared.....it only scared us more.....I understand totally, I wish you both the best of luck.....
Beautiful write.....tears flow.
Hugs and prayers |
