the months, weeks, days, and hours of a mother’s life
found her head
She knows she should just enjoy the time God gives them, but
How does she do that when the clock in her head won’t stop ticking?
She tries to forget about the illness that threatens to
take her mother home to God
The saddest part is neither she nor the mother she loves
can ignore what is reflected back at them in the mirror
Oh God please make the clock in her head disappear
She wants to make memories that she can hold onto
on cold nights and wrap herself in their warmth
Her mother would want that for her as well
She prays He reads this poem right from her heart and
helps her forget about the clock in her head
