Goodbye.
I never got to say it.
Lying there, too weak, too small.
Goodbye.
...
The white has vanished
Gone away
Now full of the rainbow
In it's vast array
...
A child of color singing away
Like there is no tomorrow of a next day;
You sound sincere with your godly voice
Impacting the young to make the right choice.
...
Eyelashes
Goodbye.
I never got to say it.
Lying there, too weak, too small.
Goodbye.
I was unaware.
As everyone wept in misery.
I cried, but not for you.
I was unaware.
I'm grown now.
But all I have is stories.
Not even a memory or a face to remember.
Only stories from those who were lucky enough to know you.
Sometimes, I dream of you.
I know it's you.
Speaking to me.
Letting me know you're OK with them.
I can't help but wish
The cancer hadn't taken you.
I wish I would have known you
For longer than I did.
