THE LOAD ASTORY BY DARRELL L. ANDERSON
THE LOAD Category: Writing and Poetry
WITH TEARS IN HER EYES
SHE WALKED SLOWLY
HER FOOTSTEPS LOUD ECHOES
THROUGH THE HALLWAY.
SHE LOVED , SHE LOVES
WITH TEARS IN HER EYES
THE CRYING
THIS IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO
SHE REASSURES HERSELF.
SHE NEEDS TO LIGHTEN THE LOAD
CARRIED - THE BURDEN
THE HEAVY WEIGHT
TO THE BATHTUB
FOR COMFORT.
TEARS IN HER EYES
THE CRYING
SHE RUNS THE WATER
WARM WATER , THE CRYING
TEARS MINGLING
WITH THE TEPID WATER.
THE WATER IS COMFORTING
PLEASE NO MORE TEARS
NO MORE CRYING.
THE BURDEN HEAVY
THE TEARS RAN
SHE COULDN'T STOP THE CRYING
SHE WOULDN'T STOP THE TEARS
DOWN HER CHEEK INTO THE WATER.
STILL CLOTHED
SHE SLIPPED OFF THE BLANKET
AND PLUNGED HER ARMS
INTO THE WATER
THE LOAD THE BURDEN
THE WATER TO HER FACE
SPLASHED
THE TEARS
THE LOAD, THE CRYING
TIRED OF THE CRYING.
WATER SPLASHES ACROSS HER FACE
FOR THE FINAL TIME
THE HEAVY LOAD NOW LIGHT
QUIET - SILENT
NO MORE A BURDEN
NO MORE
KICKING AND SCREAMING
HER TEARS FELL UPON
THE STILL CHILD IN THE BATHTUB.
