A moment worth holding on to,
A moment that should never have passed by.
A moment in time that you will never forget,
A moment put there to make you cry.
A moment when all things seem to hault,
A moment where dreams were furthest from reach.
A moment where all of everthing means nothing,
A moment when the world crashes at your feet.
A moment when you can't stand on your own,
A moment with too many things left unsaid.
A moment where your breathe is stolen from you,
A moment with too many voices screaming in your head.
A moment where love is ripped from your very heart,
A moment where you are left with only doubt.
A moment so alone it engulfs your soul,
A moment where the flame flickers and then goes out.
Written after the passing of my beloved mother, Sharon Hope Krats, on September 10th, 2001.
"As long as I am living, my mother you'll be."
