Topic: My Wish
Posted: 2004-07-30 @ 23:45:28
My grandfather's been going through some health problems lately, so during a sleepless night I wrote this. Of course, I'll never let him read it, but I figured I'd share it with you all. Enjoy!
The trepidation over what could be-
Do I stay and fight or try to flee?
My hedonism lies in despair…
For no one has answered my only prayer.
The questions remain, the answers unclear
Perhaps because they’re what I most fear.
Stories still untold, memories kept to himself-
Stacks of unread books on the shelf.
Only six years shy of five score,
Yet selfishly I beg for more.
I give all I can, but I can’t give enough
To ensure that he’ll never meet the Seraph.
My heart will break, and will never mend
When his days with me come to an end.
His teachings aren’t complete, he has more to give
Please, God, Gods, Spirits, Doctors, Universe, and Good Will, let him live.
