Rest In Peace Poem by Bening Parwitasukci

You were lying there weakly
with all the machines to keep you alive.
Hang on there, hang on dear
for your only son
for your unfinished dreams.

Hang on there, hang on.
Your eyes looked at me
glistening with a pool of tears.
Hang on dear, hang on
for the promises we've made
for our unfinished dreams.
Hang on dear, hang on.

I'm sorry dear, I'm sorry
for not knowing how hard it was
for you just to hang on there.
I'm sorry dear, I'm so very sorry
for not understanding
what you wanted in your final days.

Good bye dear, good bye.
Enjoy the rest that God has provided
since you have done your best
to hang on there for us
to give us the chance to love you again.
Good bye dear, good bye.
Till we meet again.
