Lullaby's Goodbye


standing before
your untroubled grave,
i cried.
on the epitaph,
white flowers,
candles..

in mourning was i
as i read your name
composed.
someone so dearest to me,
my mother..
had died..

i reminisce much
of her love for me..
so pure.
the lessons i learned form her
in my life..
all true..

her smiles..no more,
all her care..nowhere,
afar..
God had fetched her burning soul,
died so sicked,
yet brave.
