Heartbreaking Decisions

Walking a tight rope without an umbrella feet unsure of the next steps to take heart heavy, mind uneasy, can't look down equilibrium off kilter, yet still watching ahead focusing on you alone, selfishness set aside as days with you dwindle before our eyes Tears must flow in our private darkness anxiety we set aside in your presence smiles in place, presenting a happy face wanting always, no more or no less than what we believe is best for you, our father as days with you dwindle before our eyes Grieving for you while in your presence a luxury we dare not bring to the foreground decisions on what is right and wrong overloading our senses with the magnitude of what lies ahead, daily now.. saying our goodbyes as days with you dwindle before our eyes Second guessing decisions causing pain struggling with what we perceive is best trying to place ourselves in your shoes knowing you can no longer reason choice we place your life before the Great Physician as days with you dwindle before our eyes
