Last Words
Family photos on the wall of this small room
speak louder than the words that leave her lips.
How long do I need to stay here?
Speaking softly, I say,
Not long.
This is my response to V.J.’s Weekly Challenge #82: whisper,
from V.J. Knutson at One Woman’s Quest II.
This brought a tear to my eye, Ken, having sat at the bedside of many palliative loved ones. Beautiful and powerful.
