LAST BREATH

I didn't know you were going to take your last breath I knew you had bad health But I always knew you had the strength Your leaving us had a big effect It all started with a phone call That day all I could think of was that my fault I remember rushing home At this time I just knew I didn't want to be alone Upstairs I saw you lying in your bed My heart was beating fast, and I was scared I remember holding your hand and it was cold At that time my heart felt like it was going to explode Your eyes were close But I still had some hope I just sat there and kept on crying My heart and brain just kept denying It's been about fourteen years since you have been gone I remember that first day I held you when you were born Today I look at fourteen years of memories on Facebook And then I finally realized and understood What family and friends are all about
