Mom?..

My tears are overflowing
I can’t get them to stop
as I wipe them with my sleeve

Can you wipe them with your sleeve?

Mom?..

I’m beginning to feel cold
and my blanket won’t give me warmth

Can you comfort me
with your warmthness insead?

Mom?..

I’m bathing myself
and as I’m washing my back,
I can’t reach a certain spot

Can you wash it for me?

Mom?..

My heart is peeling off layers
it’s starting to bleed..
it really hurts, badly..

Can you place a bandage on it? Quickly..

My heartbeat is beating slower,
my body is feeling faint..

Mom?.. Mom.. mom-
