Good News

Good news,
She says.
It’s gone.
We don’t speak,
But share a moment.
A moment of memories
Of chemo,
And vomiting,
And hair loss,
And pain.
But now,
It’s gone.
She can reclaim
Her life again.
Good news.

    Wow, I was really taken by this part: “We don’t speak, But share a moment. A moment of memories”. Connection even in quietness.
