For Troy
You have gone somewhere that I can not go…
Will you be happy, and how will I know?
I’m afraid to face this world all on my own…
How can I go on, now that you’ve been called home?
You were so strong and brave in your fight,
I feel like a coward, here crying at night…
My mind travels back to your last words to me.,
I told you’d be fine. .that is what I believed…
Now you are gone, and I can’t even say goodbye,
I cant say a word, they all make me cry..
Will you please come to me in my dreams?
Help mend our hearts so torn at the seams?
How I wish to see you smile in the sun…
To know your new journey has yet begun…
I’m so sorry, I wanted you here,
When God himself seems to want you near…
I am selfish to have wanted you to stay,
When Heaven is just one last breath away..
One more hug, that is all I would ask…
But the last one I got, would have to last…
We’ll meet again on the other side,
“Til then my brother,.. a sad goodbye…
WOW, is all I can say-Man can your feelings be felt in yours words especially A Sad Goodbye. Every hair on my arm stood up and I wanted to cry.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Work Dawn, seriously, very beautiful!!
Thank you so much Eva, I wrote this after he passed..because there was just no safe place for me to grieve...(outwardly)..so I had to express it in my words.. I have to hide my poetry from some in my family..hide my poetry, and as always my own pain.
