Circumstances <br />Inconvenient <br />As always <br /> <br />I wasn't there <br />As you buried <br />Your mother <br /> <br />Desperately <br />Wanting to be <br />By your side <br /> <br />During this most <br />Difficult time <br />In your life <br /> <br />Cold and rainy <br />Gray and gloomy <br />Saturday <br /> <br />Did you hide your <br />Tears and cry on <br />The inside <br /> <br />Or did you let <br />Them slip down and <br />Wet your cheeks <br /> <br />Hoping they'd be <br />Camouflaged by <br />Drops of rain <br /> <br />Having made all <br />Arrangements as <br />Required <br /> <br />Responsible <br />You - the strong one <br />To the end <br /> <br /> <br />© Alice Vedral Rivera - 10/25/08<br /><br />Alice Vedral Rivera<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/requiem-49/
