A working progress

by Veronica   Mar 31, 2005


I stand over you and these tears fall silently,
Your every breath is a struggle
You close your eyes and try to speak
Breathing heavily and without success you give in.
My tears fall like rain
And i can no longer compose myself,
My heart breaks as you reach for my hand
My only wish is to see you smile,
To know that everything will be ok.
Unfortunately this cannot be,
My only relief is that you feel no pain.
Your flame grows dimmer
and you slowly fade.
I lean down, tears still flowing
A hopeful kiss on the cheek
as i whisper \'i love you daddy\'
