One Last Tear


She lost mama. She lost brother. She lost papa. And she happened to just lose herself.

Mama lost her final battle.

She struggled to keep afloat in the pain that cancer gave her.

She cried with one last tear.

No words

One tear said everything.

It was time for goodbye.

Grieving is a challenge needing of more time than just 3 weeks.

As pain is the lost of love.

Brother lost his sobriety.

He struggled to keep afloat in the liquor.

No oxygen. No life. No normal.

He cried with one last tear.

No words

Silence of a flat line in the room.

It was time for goodbye.

One year doesn’t always heal the heart.

As pain takes time to resolve.

Papa lost his life to sorrow.

He struggled to keep afloat in the regrets he created.

Feeling as if no one loved him. Nothing to live for. Putting his pain to the bottle.

He cried alone with no one noticing in his last tear.

No words

Just a bottle in his hands letting his life go.

It was time for goodbye.

Losing so much in such a short time put her in life of loneliness

Losing mama,brother, papa is the last thing expected for her.

She let herself go at the moment not understanding how much she meant to the world.

Her silent tears carried the loudest pain.

Learning to cope to such a life still is hard at times but she stills find a way to handle it.

At times she's not fine at all.

Every single goal she carries will miss something.

She wishes she never had to live a life like this hoping to have amnesia.

At such a young age she had to put on her boots and march to her new tragic life

A wounded heart holding together by a great soul and spirit is the continuation of aspiration.

She never expected to have a story so sad.

Her survival is just the beginning to her story with no last tears.
