Did I Give Up To Soon

They told me it's time.
You have stopped eating, drinking, and getting up.
But you still smiled at me
You still held my hand.
I could still touch you and you could still touch me.
The strength in our bond was still there.
Did I let go to soon.
I never wanted you to go that way.
I guess we can't pick our time.
We both let go of our hands it's time to say goodbye.
