fifth on my list
the look in your eyes begged for help
as if you knew you didn't have
much time left
you meet me in a strange room
putting your head in my lap
when your eyes met mine
I know it was meant
meant to be
you were meant to be mine
and I was meant-
to be yours
we've overcome so much
without one another
I don't know if we could
the last thing I want
is for you to suffer
but how do I come to terms
with losing you
your trust in me
puts me at peace
but I can't help but think
I'm being selfish
Everyday you stay with me
is a day you could no longer
be in pain
Those thoughts weigh so heavy on me
you've been my constant companion
for 14 years
how am I supposed to go on
without you
I love you so much Gunnison

The day came and went
I went in and without you I left
You didn't go alone though
I was right by your side
The last gift I could give you
Was comfort, one last time
Considering all you've given
It is the least I could do
Rest now, my sweet old man
You'll always be loved
No matter how far, or how many
worlds apart
we are.
