Who am I?
Who was I?
Who will I be?
My mind wonders aimlessly as I see you lying at my feet
Though your troubles have ended my world stays troubled still
As I fight to attain all that for me you willed

I always hated it
But now
I would give anything,
Everything
To hear you call me Jessy

She was in her slumber.
Silver hair lying
across a feather pillow,
eyes closed,
Peaceful
As I brush her hair.
Her face once soft,
now wrinkled with age.
