In a Silent Whisper

To hold your hand
let you know I was there,
To tell you I love you
and I'll alway's care,
To let you know that
I would not leave,
To hold my breath
and begin to grieve,
To watch your life
just slip away,
To know I'll not hold you
again after this day,
To feel my heart
just break in two,
To know what my being there
meant to you,
Goodbye is something
I can not say,
So instead Mom I'll tell you
I'll see you again some day.
