How to Say Goodbye?

Each day you call
How are you today?
We talk
Of nothing
Simple things
The weather
It's safe

I feel like shouting
Screaming, really
Instead, pauses
Silence, it's okay
What are you having
For dinner?
What are you doing
With life?
For life?
For me
Without me

How are you today?
You always ask
What to say
I need time
With you
For you
Yesteryears
Healthy days

Your voice says
Little, but reveals
Time slipping
Questions
No answers
The desparation
The pain
Of breathing
So simple
For me
Almost impossible
For you

How to prepare
Utter despair
Always ending
My love declared
Your love too
Mom, what happens
To me?
When your calls stop
Your voice gone
No more questions
What do I do?
When the tears come
When life's
Undone
And I can't turn
To you
Mom, oh mom
What will I do?

How do we say goodbye? We don't we say until next time for they will always be within our hearts. They may be gone in the flesh but within the spirt they will forever remain. My Mom passed away when I was a baby but... there is not a time that goes by she is not within my heart and my thoughts. Memories live on forever. flowers
