The Hardest Thing...

by Jenni Marie   Aug 24, 2014


I always thought the hardest thing
in this world-was to live in it.
Now I know that I was wrong-
the hardest thing in this world
is to see a loved one slipping
away before your very eyes and
there is nothing that you can
do help them.

The hardest thing in this world-
is to pretend everything is okay
and smile, lie, to your face and
nod and talk about when you
will be better.

The hardest thing in this world-is
to lose a loved one who you would
willingly swap places with in a heartbeat.
The hardest thing in this world-is to
watch you slowly slip away, getting
closer to death with every minute
that passes.

I don't want to lose you
-but I know I will.
