I Wish

March 31, 2014
By Anonymous

I wish for the opportunity to go back in time and tell myself what I know now.
Don't know how to handle this,
What do I do?
Don't know how to handle this,
I need you.
Without her here,
What will I do?
Without her here,
I haven't a clue.
Please don't take her, Lord
She doesn't deserve to go.
Please don't take her, Lord
I love my mother so.

When writing this poem, I was thinking about my best friend, my mother. My mother is sick, and being a high school student with a sick parent is something very difficult to deal with.
