As you cling to this last fragile string of life I’ll mourn you As you wish it wasn’t slowly becoming night I’ll wish that right there with you but why can’t I do more to stop this, why am I becoming used to this dark absorbing shroud called death? Why must it tear away the ones I love? I watch them all fall away watch their sparkle fade as I scream please stay! I’ll hold your hand and tell you it will be alright but after you go I will be far from fine You will stop hurting but how will I cope how can I let go when you aren’t here to hold me? We’re all trying to be brave but this pain is seething under the surface I don’t want you to be among those whom I’ve loved and lost your memory cannot warm me your memory will rend more holes in me your memory will never be all that you were but I will never let it fade. If I could fall asleep tonight |

Death... *hugs* A subject that looms over us all like a shadow. We may ignore it for a time, but it always comes back to remind us of it's power. I'm truly sorry you're in such a position to have to worry so much about a loved one. I'm not ashamed to say I'd switch places with anyone for an instant if it would spare them that pain and worry, yourself included. I wish I could say more, but words of comfort are not my specialty. Just remember this: That I am here, to give what comfort I am able. And take solice in this: when a person dies, all they really have is their legacy; the way they are remembered by those they loved. Remembering may not be the easiest thing to do, but it is the most honorable. -Rich "I am a part of the world that I hate/I wish the end would come faster, my world's a distaster," - Crossfade "Starless" |
