My Mother's Keeper🤍

I lost my mother to pancreatic cancer on October 20th of 2021. I continue to struggle with the loss of her. She was my best friend, she would say "Andrea, do you always have to be a magnet to my hip?" well of course I do because deep down, one day, I knew the end of her journey would come. I never knew when though. Also, never thought it'd be so soon. Anytime is too soon to lose anyone you love. I put my mother through hell on earth. I knew she struggled with constantly worrying about my well being. that gets to me pretty bad some days. This poem was my very first poem I wrote. A lot of emotions and feelings were going through my head so, I decided to put them on paper. it helps get it off my being for the moment and I enjoy to write. I have a few poems now and most of them begin with what once was or the pain and struggle, throughout the poem i try to turn to what is now or the positive side of the picture. I hope you enjoy. 🤍
