Dear mother



I see your lips moving but your words have no sound. An expressionless face no emotions are found. Your thoughts make no sense life has become a mere blur your family is weak and your friends are concerned. Your cheeks once rosie are now pale pieces of flesh. To your dear friend that bottle you release all your stress. Your eyes once sparkled your smile made them glow behind long lashes only red veins now show. Your hearts beating faster trying to keep up the pace with your blood alcohol volume that’s now in first place. I pray to the lord daily he will stay by your side Because there is nothing that would kill me quicker than if my mother died.
