How is it we feel joy and sadness on equal measure
Though our moments with you we will always treasure
The first time you opened yours eyes, the first finger cuddle
The tears that we've shed drowning us like puddles
The glimmer of hope now hanging by a thread
The gloom of our inner voices never wanting to be heard
The walls feel closer as they start to close in
As we try to stave off how this could all end
Yet there was always this tiny glimmer of light
As you continued to so valiantly fight.
Again and again you showed so much heart
The pain that we're feeling, where do we start
You are slowly slipping, edging away
Knowing we'll not be with you at the end of the day.
I hold you in my arms as you feel the warm breeze on your skin
Absolutely heartbroken, I'll never get to do this again.
One last breath and you've passed in the blink of an eye
Like a bright shooting star across the beautiful night time sky
