For those who washed you when you were weak, Those who were scared to see you ill, For those who thought you madly stubborn cos you, Wouldn’t take another pill.
I salute them all, who shared you with me, Paying for your bills, Calling on others to give their dimes, I appreciate the toils and tears and All the memories you left for Them. Leaving only me.” She wrote
