If I Could Hear Her

Published: November 2013
I
see your teardrops falling.
I hear you cry my name.
I know you
cannot see me,
but I hold you just the same.
I watch as you
lie abed
as restless as can be.
I hear your whispered words
as
you pray for dreams of me.
Every day for you is painful.
Each
breath, each step you take,
but as the wise mom, I know
a
future you will make.
I envelope you in my love
as for me
you used to do.
It's hard to see you in such pain.
Forever the
strong one's been you.
Although our lives' journeys
have
bid us to be apart,
I am with you, you are with me,
always in
our hearts.
