Cancer

by Beth   Jun 20, 2005


He started this poem
so long ago
but never finished
he had to go

he took off without me
gave up his fight
but it wasn't on purpose
that he left that night

as i went threw his room
i read notes that said
that he didn't want to go
that he was scared to be dead

and then i saw the poem
that tore my heart
if you wait and listen
ill begin from the start

"my dearest friends you have helped me
more than you could know
and just because i am not here
doesn't mean ill go
in your hearts i lay forever
if you let me stay
in your thoughts
ill always be
wouldn't have it any other way
I'm sorry i must leave you here
but you heard what the doctors say
' I'm sorry to have to tell you this
but your cancer will end you someday.'
i cried for nights after that
even though it wouldn't change
what god had done and planned for me
could never be rearranged
don't shed tears
or loose track of years
and never let me go
don't hide yourself or your heart
always let it show
this poem i write
wont have an end
and neither will i
even if you see me dead
I'll always be right by your side"

to this day i miss him
but i know that he is there
and i try my best to stay strong
even if it isn't fair

ill never forget what he told me
or what he helped me learn
ill never forget that i love him
and that it was just his turn
