No Way to Say Goodbye

by capturedelight   Jul 24, 2007


And I hear the words come from your little mouth.
I know the love that's in your eyes.
I see the innocence upon your sweet face.
And I know that you are not afraid.

I have to be strong for you little one.
I must mask this pain I feel deep inside.
Why did this have to happen to you my dear.
I can't grasp the concept of this life.

It's unfair that we can't have forever.
Ha, forever is such a cruel joke.
I don't want to have to say goodbye.
But I must learn to let you go.

Your time is being captured you will never see the world.
No more cute smiles and sweet laughter.
No more catching snowflakes or dancing in the sun.

Your life is ending you will never grow old.
But in a moment you kiss me softly on the cheek to tell me that it's alright.
I love you, you're my everything.

And I hear the words come from your little mouth.
I know the love that's in your eyes.
I see the innocence upon your sweet face.
And I know that you are not afraid.

I realize that you've grown before your time.
And I realize that you're ready and so am I.
It just hurts so much.
This is such a big task for a little boy.
