Sooni A. Clock

Alone

She laid there alone no family from home

She just kept saying “I’m ready to go”

 

Every day more of the same

No one came to but who’s to blame

 

She told me of a time back in her prime

That she used to thrive now she just survives

 

We try to convince her

That we’re all going to miss her

 

She doesn’t want to hear it

She doesn’t even fear it

 

She just lies there alone

“I’m ready to go”.
