She stood at the roadside her blood ran cold his entire life flashed before her eyes <br />First breath first cry first kiss first hug first steps first word first day at school first exam <br />First date first love first broken heart...first first first... <br />Now became his last... <br />Icy splinters, icicles of pain jagged pierced a mothers warm loving tender heart <br />Now frozen and suspended in this cruel moment that fate had dealt <br />A mother watches as her sons life drains away into a pool of blood <br />Flesh of her flesh <br />A piece of her heart <br />The life to which she had given birth <br />He lays in the roadside in the final throes of life <br />Or is it Death <br />Mother, mother, the words form on his lips <br />The very same word that had been his very first were now to be his last <br />With his head cradled in her lap <br />Softly delicately tenderly she gazes into his eyes <br />Only to see the young vibrant life so full of love hope dreams <br />Gently leave her side <br />Twenty four years of life love laughter joy pain sorrow anger <br />Eclipsed darkened extinguished forever <br />Goodbye my son goodbye my mother <br />The pain of unbearable but inevitable separation reflected in each Others eyes <br />In one unfortunate calamitous lamentable moment <br />He is gone<br /><br />Lilac Wine<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/one-unfortunate-calamitous-lamentable-moment/
