Sudden Death
Which did not give us time to speak.
It leaves us all feeling shocked
To find out that our mother is no longer here.
We sit in silence
Thinking why this has happened.
We ask questions like
What went wrong?
Where are you now?
Are you okay?
These questions are never answered.
Instead tears come gradually
Because we cannot believe that you are gone
Leaving us here to carry on.
What will we do without you?
We ask ourselves.
It will be hard for a long time
Because we will never be able to phone you
And talk about things like we used to.
But we will never forget a mother like you
Who will stay in our hearts forever and forever
Until we meet again in a world that is heaven
Where we think you must be waiting for us
When our time has come to be there too.
