Saying Goodbye

April 18, 2008

Sitting next to a hospital
bed
watching him lay full of heart
but no soul.
It's like the empty
feeling you get when you feel so
helpless.
Knowing he loved me i still
couldn't get the reason he
had to sit there with so
many frets.
Thoughts were nascars racing all at
the same time,
as if there was even a
finish line.
Some asking why now....
but others asked how
my dad and his siblings
will live without somebody
they never will forget.
Hearing whispering words of
sadness, there's only so much time to

Sit,


Watch,



And Wait.
As the tears continue falling.
In the background you hear
the breathing monitor
encouraging everyone
saying "It's going to be okay!"
But then everything changes,
and the noise that
nobody wants to hear...
"BEEEEP"
