I couldn't do it

I HAD TO DO IT!!!

YES, i was selfish

I had to do it though

i hope you understand

They said to not blame myself

It haunts me, the way you suffered

Laying there on that hospital bed that night

I saw the pain you were in

It was not time for you to go.. 

Not in my eyes

I wanted to keep you alive 

I wanted to tell you that it was going to be okay 

you could get stronger

you could over come this

I held your hand as it got harder and harder to breath

YES i was selfish

I couldn't do it

Couldn't let you go that night

I will forever be haunted by that night

something i could have saved you from

you wanted to go

you begged me

you could hardly breath....

It was your time to go

but i held you back 

forever i am so sorry

you were always strong

You could do this

get rid of the illness

or was it the lack of life you wanted to live?

were you giving up? 

You couldn't give up

It was my fault you stayed on this earth a little more

It was all my fault and im so sorry

i should have let you go....

you would have been better off

I hope the angels love you

So very sad. Great write

[Aven]

this poem is full of anxiety, frustration and hurt... the sentences almost jump off the screen!

Beautiful, honest write. I know these feelings well. A year ago today I lost my mother to illness and sitting there in the hospital it was so very hard to let go. They are in a better place now, at peace.

this is so heart felt and lovely, this is so good.
it is very hard to let go of someone, i don't think i would have been able to bring myself to do it either.

[My Fair Lady]
