The time we got to share together,
Went by too quick...Too fast.
For life or someone took you away from me,
With that hateful, horrible disease.
The cancer struck you hard and fast,
We weren't even given time to sneeze.

You were gone, and we were left,
To struggle through this life.
The pain struck more when we looked in moms eyes,
As we dreaded to continue on somehow with life.

Continue we did, for a while,
all just trying to make it through and try to smile.
Times were tough, as we missed you dearly.

Then came along in not much time,
More horrible and sad news.
Mommy was sick, the same as you,
The cancer had got her too.

How could this be, its not even five years,
Since we lost our dad
I hated this world for what it's doing,
Why do we have to be that someone?

It stayed with mom for a while,
Eventually making her quite sick.
Then it was time to say our goodbyes,
When his heart could no longer tick.

Exactly five years since we said goodbye to you,
We had to say goodbye to mom too.
I wish it was a dream and I could wake up,
But this nightmare is horribly true.

And so we continue, each day different to the next,
The pain still so real and sore.
Still trying to accept and understand,
Why did this happen to our family for?

I now sit and pray and try to picture you two,
And I hope that you are both together.
This world we live in is not the end,
And your love was to last forever.

Until it's time for us to meet again,
Please be there watching over me.
Help me continue through this life,
And give me direction that I can see.

Mom and Dad you are my entire world,
Someday I will see you again.
Not soon enough, I know.
I do my best to look past the how, look past the why.
Why so soon you both had to go?

This I hope you see
The only question I ask of you is,
Are you proud of me?
