Please forgive me

There she lay

In the middle of the floor

With a hand full of pills

The dresser blocking her door

Tears of tourture

Stream down her face

Its finally time

She leaves this place

Her breath, more shallow

Her heart beat slows

She goes back to the place

Where the anxiety grows

She shuts her eyes

To see them standing there

And goes back to the time

When somebody cared

She hears the laughter

Of her childrens delight

And hears the sweet whisper

“I love you mommy, good night”

The little voices

Reek havoc in her head

Knowing she won’t hear them

She knows she’s better off dead

“Mommy, come with me,

I don’t like this at all”

She watched them drive away

Her fists strike the wall

“Please, mommy”

He cries

“I’ll be a good boy

Don’t let her take us”

Tears fill her eyes

Falling to her knees

She feels as if she failed

But the rumors around her

The lies and long tales

She drifts into darkness now

Knowing she did what she could

She fought to her last breath

Like any momma would

As the day grows dark

And her skin grows colder

She hopes they’ll forgive her

When they get older

She leaves a short note

For her babies to read

To remind them she’ll be there

Whenever they’re in need

“My precious little girl

I know you won’t understand this

Whether you’re big or you’re small

I just want you to know

Its not your fault at all

I love you, keep shining

With your smile that lights a room

I’m always here with you

I’ll see you again soon”

“My little knight in shining armour

You’re such a smart little man

I’ll be with you forever

Guiding you and holding your hand

Take care of your brother

Love him and guide him

All you have is eachother”

“My handsome prince

You’re tough and you’re strong

You’re independant and true

I may not be here

But I’ll always be with you.”

You three are my world

That will never change

To make it through life,

It must be treated like a game

She held the picture so tightly

And kissed it once more

As her last breath escaped her

Her hand hit the floor

She did what she could

There’s nothing left to gain

She’s in her final resting place

She’s no longer in pain
