"Are you serious"

I`ve seen my mother today,she didn`t look ok.
Her mouth was twisted and she couldn`t move her arms and legs.
They were just lying there,as if she were dead.
If she die before I turn 18,I`m not going to feel like a normal teen.
I will feel weak,like someone shot me and left me in the street.
I would want to give up on everything,even my big dreams.
Life is hard without a mother, to stick by your side and tuck you in the covers.
A lot of kids have a mother to talk to everyday,but when I see mine I don`t know what to say.

There comes a time in life when you have to let go of all the drama, & surround yourself with people who make you laugh so hard; you forget about all the bad & focus soley on the good. After all, life's too short to be anything but happy (:

You writing has perfect flow and wonderful imagery. No part of your piece seemed like it didn't fit. As I read it, I felt transported into the mind of another. During the time it took me to read it, I felt like your words could have been my own thoughts. I loved it though and your doing a wonderful job. Please keep writing!!! 

Please check out some of my work, I haven't really got a lot of comments....

I Like it. I Think expressing yourself through writing is very important. I dont know what its like not to have a mother but i do know what its like to not be able to talk with her about what i truly feel.
