Dad

Tears are  shed  When  reality reminds  me That  you are  fading I know  you wanted  to stay  for a little  while I know because  you  told  me that  you will  never  leave  me But your  heart  wanted  to rest I still remember  that day My brother  came to my  school And told  me that  you  wanted  to see me And  when  i got home Your Body  was  frozen like  an ice Even  though  you couldn't  hear me Your  heart  was still functioning I went near the  bed  where  you were lying I just felt a heart beat  A beat that  was trying  to tell me something "Son I love you and i will always  be there  for  you" I touched  you you felt  my  touch I know you  did "Because  i didn't  feel your heart beat after  i touched  you" You faded May your  soul continues  to rest in peace

That is a hard thing to go through, be thankful you had a chance to say goodbye. Very touching.
