Condolences

Mom.my angel my muse,deep in the night when you lie in your bed woundering at shadows up over your head and you pull those soft white sheets to your eyes do you whisper to god and ask him why why is she gone and why did she go. you want to know and you want him to show you ask for a reason so pray as fast as you can but unanswered prayers are a part of the plain but when you ask why and your eyes start to cry and you feel so sad that you think you might die .listen becouse he will tell you and cherus wings hug and hold you snug as they sing. a song so sweet like sirers of lore as you slip into dreams of what was before and then you will see her far away in her bed when she has the covers pulled up over her head and shes asking god why as her eyes fill with tears and she shakes with fear that nobody hears her. when she asks why and her eyes start to cry and she feels so lonely she thinks she might die she listens and he tells her snug as they sing. a song so sweet like sirers of love as she slip into dreams of what was before and she sees the little girl foraway in her bed with covers pulled up around her head and she smiles through the pain .when he answers you will be together again someday.love forever.joann i miss you mom.
