Letting go

by trudy   Sep 22, 2006


I sat whilst i watched you drift
love once slept it was my only gift
awakening to an other daily battle
everyone waits and boils another kettle

i wish you all a peaceful day
my body came home and my mind did pray
i often thought it was beyond my call
i couldn't stand back and watch you fall

i only hope i can keep this going
i wont break down but the cracks are showing

my faith in you all is strong like steal
were all in this together believe me its real

you granted us all a final wish
you opened your eyes i thought you would finish

i sat again please just one more night
your comfort & stress gave us all such a fright
we want you to sleep now and pass through that bright light
we want you to sleep now
we dint want another night

Please look after this hero we send...
hes a man of great dignity
he will be your best friend
