There's no denying it now;
She knows she's dying.
Her body, once vibrant,
Has gone old and frail.
She curses the disease
That inhabits her body,
Slowly choking the very
Life out of her.
Her thoughts go to her son,
Her only child who's now a grown man.
She sighs heavily, knowing
She'll never see his first born,
Or the marriage he'll one day enter.
A tear trickles down her cheek
As her body slips into an eternal sleep.
