She laid in the dark
Blinds drawn
Lights dimmed for comfort
Cascading waterfall
Flowing from a teapot
Light classical music
Echoing throughout the room
Her daughters laid next to her
Gentle stroking her striking silver hair
Clutching at her hand
They watched as her heart beat became rapid
Long
Short
Rapid
Short
Tears
Tears flowing down their cheeks
Hands resting on her stomach
Tightly closed hands
