Haiku Friday

Don’t leave me she said

as though reading in my face

the deep pain I hide.

Promise me she said

I need you to stay with me

You are strong enough.

I know it hurts mom

But you can do anything

You can fight this thing.

Promise me she said

promise me you will wake up

you will fight and win.

Promise me each day

you will keep pushing forward

you will grit your teeth.

You will not give up

If tired take the time to rest

If saddened cry.

Whatever you do

promise me you’ll stay with me

you are my best friend.
