Please...

Please...

Please...
Don't say a word, I see the peace in your eyes that you're already speaking 
Your smile has lived through our lives and that's the legacy you're leaving 
In this moment we're not afraid, as you carried your life with elegance and grace 
In the last of your months you have battled on and have been so brave

I remember when you met my dad the rush of butterflies you said was fluttering around
I remember when you met your grandchild your smile was so wide the devine moment was profound 
I remember when you saw me in that white dress walking down the aisle 
Meeting the very man that would make me whole for the rest of my life

The time came that we had to lower his body into the ground, but we said his spirit will wander around our love
These times were hard and hearts were broken, but we had each other's souls, we were like two turtle doves 
Even though you're going, your legacy lives on through the love of my child
Even though you're going with your breath weakened I'm ever grateful mam, you gave me a life

I'm here with you, sitting by your side, no matter how many times you've cried
With my hand on your cheek, far too soon he has taken you to the skies 
I ache in my heart that I can't rewind time because I can't say the words, goodbye
With tears rolling down your ghostly smile, why now do I have to hear that sound...

Please...
Please...

Beep beep beep beep beeeeeeeeeeep.....

Wow! Thanks very much Tony I was interested in your take of it, as it was a very strange feeling while writing it, I was actually welling up and writing it so fast it just blew me away of the story in my head, thanks again Tony ?
