Dream

I rocked gently her in my arms, and shed tears as I did. Mum's face was looking innocent and frail, childlike and speaking in words and sentences I could not understand. Softly I kissed her head and told her that it was alright, but I knew deep down it wasn't.

I felt myself shake and quiver, shake and quiver from sorrow until I was awake.
