''My Last Words''

My Last Words... A poem dedicated to my Uncle William...                                       
By: Jessica Leeann SPARKS


I never expected anything like this to ever happen, 
I never thought you'd be the one to go.

There's so many things I just want you to know, 
I never had a chance to say "I love you" or to show you how much I care.

I never had a chance to thank you for always being there,
I never got to apologize for the arguments we had.

When I think about it I feel really bad,
I wish that I would have had a chance to hug you and say goodbye,
I've been doing my best to accept it and not ask God why.

I know now you're in a better place,
it just hurts so badly when I picture your face.

At least I did have a chance to get closer to you before you had to go,
these are the things I just wanted you to know.

I love you Uncle William, my memories of you I will never let go.

In loving memory of William Lee Sullivan, Sr. 
October 13, 1960- March 25, 2006
