No! You Can'T Leave Me! Poem by Melynda Smith

I lost them, in my dreams anyway.
Merissa, sweet lil' Merissa,
hurt and left for dead in an alley,
Behind a restaurant,
and she's crying out, out for me, her older sis to save her.
But, how? !
I have to be dreaming!
I blink, and see that i'm at school,
I take my cell out to answer it,
only to hear that my mom,
my true mom and caregiver for me,
Got into an accident.
Went to the hospital, but,
Didn't survive no matter what they tried or did.
Silently and quickly,
I leave crying,
Go out side and scream loudly,
Then, passed out.
And then,
I woke up.
