I cry
Sob
Loud
Ugly
Sobs
As I watch
My beautiful
Bald baby boy
Slowly
Painfully
Take his last
Breath
Who said death was peaceful?
They were wrong
It's painful
Pain that will never
End
Time does not
Heal all wounds
Not when you watch
Your son
Die
All hope is lost
Cancer stole my
Beautiful blue-eyed son
From his mother
From me
Don't say it's okay
Because it's not
It never will be
So don't expect me
To move on
Like I never had
A son
A beautiful son
A bright son
I kiss his lips
Lips now blue
From death
One last time
I may have reached
My breaking point
But I'll keep fighting
Fighting for
Other kids
That still have a chance
Chance to live
Live like my son
Never did
Live a life
Without
Cancer
