Are we near our last goodbye
I see it in your eyes, the worry and sorrow
God has granted us this time to say goodbye
But none of us can say the word, so we cry.
You want to tell me something and I try to be strong
I can't help it Daddy, I can't say goodbye.
Just the mere thought of it makes me cry.
How are we going to go on without you
My heart goes out to Mother, I see her weakening trying to make it through.
I knew we would come to this day
I knew any of us could not live forever
I did not know, I can not cope
I can not say goodbye, all I can do is hope.
Hope that God give us more time
Give us anything!
But Please Dear God do not take my Daddy!!
I am writing this poem trying to release the fear
So you will be able to tell me the things you need me to hear.
It's my responsiblity being the oldest
To make your last wishes come true.
I must grieve NOW so I will be strong enough to help the others through.
Mother, Sister, as well as me
Will explain to the grands that God has set your spirit free
Don't Worry, I do realize we are approacing our last goobye
I'm trying to get it together; but right now all I can do is cry.
I LOVE YOU, DADDY.....
