He Was Sent Up In The Sky

by Michelle18   Aug 21, 2007


I remember the days we spent in my room,
Just cuddling one another.
We'd laugh and giggle so much,
And just stare at each other.

We were so young,
We had that fire in our eye.
We made a promise one day,
To never let that fire die.

Then one day we were walking,
And you just fell to the ground.
I was panicking so much,
I was the only one around.

I rushed you to the hospital,
To see what was wrong.
The doctors really scared me,
They took so long.

The doctor finally came out,
With a look of sadness on his face.
I asked, "doctor whats wrong,
Is he going to be okay?"

He said, " Im sorry to have to say this,
But I have some bad news......
....Your boyfriend has had cancer for a long time,
He will pass very soon."

As I dropped to my knees,
With tear filled eyes.
I folded my hands in prayer,
And looked toward the sky.

"Lord please help him,
Let him make it through.
If I have to lose him,
I dont know what I will do."

I finally wiped my tears,
As I stepped into the room by his bed.
He whispered in my ear softly,
And these are the words that he said....

"You'll always be my baby,
I love you with all of my heart.
Even though its time for me to go,
In your dreams we'll never part."

Later that night he was gone,
He was sent up in the sky.
I hold his hand and continue to say I love you,
As I sit by the bed and cry.

    Aw. This is so sad. If this is a true story, I'm terribly sorry. It was well written, and so filled with emotion. It was absolutely beautiful. I loved the rhymes, they were very good.

    This poem was deeply saddening. Although this don't come from personal experience, that doesn't make it any less true. Unfortunately stories which reflect your poem happen all the time, with loved ones taken away from us. :(

    You had a few mistakes here and there, nothing major though.

    'I asked, "doctor whats wrong,
    Is he going to be okay?"'
    ^^ You have to capitalize "Doctor", and you've missed an apostrophe in "What's".

    'He said, "Im sorry to have to say this,
    But I have some bad news......'
    ^^ You alos need an apostrophe in "I'm".

    I noticed you made mistakes such as those (^) in quite a few places. They aren't major, and don't really take much away from the actual poem itself, but it's always good to look neat and proper, otherwise some people may judge your poem harshly as well.

    Nice job, though. A truly sad read.

    "Later that night he was gone,
    He was sent up in the sky.
    I hold his hand and continue to say I love you,
