Batteling Poems | Examples


Lorraine's Journey

She got the phone call she did'nt want to hear,
the doctor told her she maybe had a year.
She thought about her life and all it had been,
and she knew she could never get it back again.
She told her family I love you so,
but there may come a time where you have to let me go.
She loved her life and everything it had been,
batteling for her life she fought to defend.
She fought the battle and thought she had one,
she said I can't go on so I guess I'm done.
She said don't cry for me I'll be alright,
you need to let me go to meet Jesus in the light.
She said I don't want to go I have no choice,
she told us all in her small little voice.
She held our hands with all of her might,
she said I see it now the warm and loving light.
She closed her eyes and took one last breath,
She said I'll see you all on Heaven's golden step.
I'll always remember the love we shared,
I bid you now do not be scared.
She said I'm leaving now my angel awaits,
Where I will meet you all at the heavenly gates.
She said once more don't cry for me,
for together in Heaven we will all be.
