goodbye my darling

goodbye my darling
it was hard to watch you die
sitting here watching people telling you goodbye
is driving me out of my mind
even if I don't show it to them
I'll miss you everyday for the rest of my life

what are we going to do with out you
me an our little boy
I guess I'll do my best
like you ask me but that don't mean I have to like it
an I'll see you everyday in Waylon's Eye's
cause that's one of the many things he got from you

goodbye my darling
I guess this is the end of the chapter
I'll do my best
as you will always be in our heart's

This was a very hard poem to read. I can only imagine and never quite even coming close to do it justice... The eyes... I can relate to that. A very affective piece peace and HugSS for your deep loss and trials. <3

thanks smoothie

I had to do a lot of soul searching an as time go's by you learn to adapt
Cheryl left Me with a 7 year old who's now 22 an has his own boy now
He has My hardness coupled with her goodness so He's not near so fast to fight as I was/am
She loved Me in spite of all My fault's and gave Me something I couldn't help but love, And wherever She is I hope She knows
in doing that She saved My Life


Every story-teller bends the myth to his own purpose. that's why a Hero has a thousand faces
