Entry Two: Lost

by Maple Tree   Apr 5, 2013


It's hard to understand the feelings
that plague my heart, I've always
tried to see light in a dark world,
but in this very moment;

I'm truly blind.

The rawest of writes deserve to
be written, this is what she always
said to me,

however I feel guilty for grieving
before she closes her eyes,
it pains me beyond pain to
watch her suffer in agony.

To be lost, needing a best friend
knowing I am there and still
her world crashes and I can't
save her from the darkness.

I know once the light follows her home
all her fears shall be lifted,
but until then, it kills my soul
to watch her scatter through the
night in her very own mind.

    My heart is with you Andrea and I am truly saddened when reading this... I know I can't begin to imagine the pain and depth of these emotions, just take it day by day. I will keep your mother in my thoughts constantly, and I believe watching someone so close w/ such a bond is the hardest to thing to do when they are suffering....and I'm truly sorry this has to happen. You have strength, don't feel like you're weak for writing what you did or thinking how you feel.... I think suffering brings out a person's love to the fullest, I've seen relatives in physical pain but not someone as genuine as my best friend, which is my mother. You penned such a raw write and I hope you do not feel guilty, you are allowed to cry and grieve.....you and her are both beautiful souls as Tara said. We're all here for you and I hope the time she has left becomes filled with peace and gentleness, less pain. Take care <3
