unable to sort them
images of your face before
before it took over
before it stole your youth
before it stole your body
before it stole your mind
overwhelming they choke the tears
choke the cries forming at the back of my throat
deep breaths bring no relief for the pain
whispers of prayers linger on my lips
fighting to make their way to G-d's ear
no sound...inaudible movements
Aba...HaShem...Avinu Malkeinu...
hear the cries of my heart!
