I WATCHED

I watched you grasp for air You fought and fought hard I felt helpless I wanted to help but didn’t know how Your hospital monitors were going crazy I wanted to cry but couldn’t It was like voices in my head saying shouldn’t Witnessed your agony and pain Tears wanted to fall I held back Your eyes and body went into a seizure I knew from within You would be leaving this Earth Suddenly your body went lump I felt your leg and it was cold Your eyes were closed and then totally breathless You got your heavenly wings I cried uncontrollable Into the skies your soul soared You roam now in the ever after.
