The shock of diagnosis
Was etched upon her face
Her eyes and mouth wide open
Slow motion, now the pace
“I’m sorry,” said the doctor
The words ringing in her ears
Her nightmares had come true
Her deepest darkest fears.
As she slowly left his office
With a cloud above her head
She struggled to remember
Everything he’d said
She really can’t remember
How she made it home that day
But somehow she got there
somehow she found her way
Her heart was thumping loudly
As she made the calls with dread
She tried to tell her family
What the doctor said
Although she couldn’t see them
She knew just how they felt
Winded by the blow
They had all been dealt
That night she went to see her
And tucked her into bed
She hugged her daughter tightly
And kissed her on the head
She softly said, “I love you”
And quietly shut the door
The tears welled in her eyes
She couldn’t hold back anymore
“They’ll make me better, Mummy”
Was ringing in her ears
her nightmares had come true
her deepest darkest fears
woke at 7am this morning and had to write this down before I forgot!
