The day is edging closer
To the thirtieth of May
It was two years ago then
When my heart began to lose its way

You were taken away from me
So unfairly it did seem
Now the only time I see you
Is when you visit me in my dreams

I reach out to touch you
So close to me you feel
My mind wants to believe
That you stand before me for real

A special place your have in my heart
I keep it under lock and key
Where I have many treasured memories
Of the times you spent with me

I try so hard not to dwell
On the sadness of your death
How I wasn't holding your hand
When you took your last breath

I just hope that you knew
How much love I had inside
And that you'll be with me forever
In my heart where you now reside

WRITTEN ABOUT MY FATHER WHO DIED TRAGICALLY OF CANCER TWO YEARS AGO..........SO HARD IT IS TO LET GO.

Oh Sue...there are no words. I'm just so sorry, you have been a comfort to me, and I hope that I can return the favor somehow. Much love to you...I'm here if you need an ear.

I'm sorry for how you have suffered.  Your Father would be proud of your poem.  It shows such real emotion.  I lost both my parents to cancer, and also a sister.  We must keep our chins up and go on.  We will always miss our loved one's gone.  Roger
