Nightmare again

Time against us
i feel u leaving us
quicken the pace
please not too late again

in an instant
rushing up to u
i feel ur spirit leave us
our bond severed forever
i know what is awaiting me within that room

facing the sadness
i pass through that door
see ur body lifeless
yet peaceful
ur hair lifeless upon ur pillow
your mouth open and eyes closed
almost sleeping except ur chest doesn\'t rise and fall

i leave the room not wanting to cry
in the waiting room i stare out upon the darkness at the car park
my father approaches rushed from work after hearing she was leaving us and to come and say goodbye

in a rush down two flights of stairs tears streaming down my face
i catch u at the door
u see whats wrong by my face
but i still say she is gone
in that instant i see the sadness in ur eyes as u embrace me

back to that room we journey
they\'ve put ur dentures in
u look horrifying
there they stay
for what seems like eternity

my sorrows unheard by my friend who does not hear of what happened until i face school again

upon that last journey home
i remember the woman u were
and how the last six weeks
u died a little more day by day
the cancer consumed ur body to the point that it gave way

two years later and still i remember every little detail
and still desire to cry again
but i know u believe in me and ur not truly gone for ur memory lives within me as does a little piece of u
every day u watch over me to make sure i get through and i still wish u were alive today to see all the things i do
