“Will you be my friend?”

“I will. Will you be my friend?”

And they became friends.

Jerry Brotherton

 

We emptied her room today

Faded photos of a mother

Holding children whose faces

That we can barely recall

 

We emptied her closet today

Clothes from summers and winters

Too long ago to remember

Now just charity donations

 

We emptied her life today

Forgotten pieces and fragments

Tucked neatly into drawers

Given to her by…who knows

 

We cried for her today

Heads on shoulders

Arms holding each other

In fear we will not remember

 

We promised to save her love today

Tucked it deep into our hearts

Where the tears could not find it

To wash it away

 

We said goodbye to her today.
