Mom

I felt the void
When you drew
Your last breath

My insides
Became an
Empty shell

When your
Spirit exited
Your human vessel

Could never
Formulate
Poetic words
About you.

You were
Too perfect

A Man's
First love
Began from birth

No strings attached
Loyalty infinite
Acceptance unconditional
Future relationships
Defined

Mom
I love you
I miss you
and though
I am broken

In your last hours
you spoke of
Angels, descending, bring from above
with echoes of mercy, whispers of love
and with this
I am blessed assured
that we will meet
again
as Jesus is thine ............................................
