In Memory of My Mom

The death is taking it's toll,
With only a slight memory of the protection that once stood for me.
Agape, now but a faint memory.

Who is this figment of my past,
Who Cradled me in brokenness with tenderness.
"Oh God," I scream for one more caress.

How can I breathe beneath the abyss of my emotions?
My heart disfigured,
My head pounding,
The panic overtaking me.

A lifetime now vanished into the volumes of history.
"Who will protect me now?" This my consuming mystery.
Who can i rely on?
Who wont let me down?
Overwhelmed by this grief I'm starting to drowned.

From my silence erupts screams of fearful-frustration,
anxious-wonder and terror.
Is there anyone out there?
Can anyone hear?
Agape, where are you?
I can't live when you're not near.

My eyes swollen
My face drenched with tears
Mom I miss you I wish you were here.
