    to my mother

     I know I'll never talk to you,
    No, never once again. 
    You've moved beyond my ability
    to try and comprehend.
    Do I sometimes hear your voice,
    or always miss your face?
    You took with you a  piece of me,
    that can never be replaced. 
    You'll never the know the tears I cried 
    the moment that you left;
    Or how they still swell up inside
    any moment that I slip.
    I keep a constant vigilance
    for signs that you are near
    how many long nights will i wait
    for you to reappear.

    my mother passed away in 2008. She believed in ghost and always told me if there was a way after she died she'd let me know....I still haven't heard from her

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
