Mother's Depression
Everything seemed to be going fine
At least in my mind
She was always there
tended to my every care
But dying inside from decay
She drove me for miles
Provided countless smiles
I never knew she felt alone each day
All is not well
She became a shell
Our compass is shattered
If she just grasp that only love matters
Is she past the point of no return?
We did not listen or care
Her troubles we did not share
A lesson we wished we had learned
