His Mother

She sat on the floor in the corner of the room with her head leaning on the bureau as the tears fell. She felt out of control and desperation overcame her before she got on her knees and began begging and pleading to an unknown entity of her childhood faith. She did not care what happened to her as long as he was ok. It was about him and not about her. All the pain and fear surfaced and the sobs became louder though no one heard and she felt alone as she sat on that floor in the corner of the room and rested her head against the bureau.
