I’m starting to realize
What this all means
Right as it may be time
For you to leave
And
I’ll try to understand if it is
Even if it hurts
Even if I can’t stop crying, quietly,
So no one sees how much it aches,
So you can have the remembrance
You’d deserve
Even if it breaks me in two, no,
Three thousand pieces
But
If there’s anything I can do,
I will do it.
I wasn’t there when you were younger
But I hope you understand
The thunder I had to confront
From within this mind
If you need a part of me, ask
I will give just as Adam did
To create Eve, to give life, in this
Uncertain time
