Your last words are sent through a text
"I love you mommy. He’s coming."

And she will hear those words
like ringing to her ears.
they will stitch themselves
to the sockets of her core
and dig out holes till nothing
is left but blackness.

Your mother will leave you a voicemail
and she will tell you she loves you
and not 5 hours later,
she will wake up in the middle of the night
and feel something terrible has happened.

Later she will find out it’s too late.
You are gone and so is she.

There’s coldness...
