Unprepared

This wound would be the deepest.
This wound would be the worst.
This wound would test his mortality.
This wound would leave him cursed.

And he knew that it was coming,
And he knew that it would hurt,
And he knew that it would floor him,
And he knew he would hit the dirt.

There was no way to avoid it.
There was nothing he could do.
There was no way to try and stop it.
There was no hope to carry him through.

So he watched the old man dying,
So the old man knew he cared.
So he could savour those last few moments,
So that he knew that his son was prepared.

Cancer

We stood by your bed side, We thought you would make it through the night, But your body was going through a battle, The cancer was winning the fight.

Deathbed Goodbye

You reach for me but I turn away unable to face the pain. The sight of you betrays my memory two visions but not the same. I refuse to believe that you are going you'll grace my life no more.

Proud

Mother, you did me right, you carried me nine months in womb, sacred tomb of your soul. Bore pain in birth like no man would suffer for me; you loved me more for that, than any man would ever dare.

Grandad

I wish you were here. Like you wouldn't believe. My heads in my hands. I'm starting to grieve. Why did you go. And leave me this way. I wish it was me. Then you could stay. I'm lost and alone.
