Mother's Watch

by Andrea Hill

 

I sit beside you, Mom

On death's doorstep you lay

I set my head upon your wrist

As I bow my head to pray

 

The world to me shut off

The silence here is thick

Alone just you and I

And your watch's rhythmic tick

 

I block out all my pain

And loss I'm sure to feel

I concentrate now deeply

On the tick your watch reveals

 

I sit here now for days

And hear the rhythmic sound

I contemplate you being gone

The thought now seems profound

 

The time for you is near

To enter Heaven's Gate

I'll stay here by your side

Until your journey is complete

 

It's months now since you've passed

My wounds are healing slow

I want so much to hear your voice

To see your smile's glow

 

I lay my head upon my wrist

When my feelings are too strong

I hear your watch's rhythmic tick

And know you're never gone
