the bright hallway glisens
door after door
with people crying
people screaming
people begging
i wont cry ,
no i wont cry
we got to the door
a lady came walking
out
"oh you must be the rest of the family,
hes had a lot a visitors today"
the pretty red dress
just for him
my daddy by my side
grandma started crying
i wont cry,
no i wont cry
" you girl are so beatiful"
my sister face streaked with tears
" promise me youll go to collage or univirrsity"
hesitantly to speak afraid ill cry
"yes grandpa, i love you"
a vaccant whisper behind us
"its time to go"
days later
god took him away
free from the cancer
but never
did i cry
i wont cry,
no i wont cry
i just wish i could have said good bye
one last time

i cried writing this, looking back when i was 10 was a time i pushed away avoiding everthing,i never talked of it getting all choked up,you said say a secret and so i did, on what i felt there in that hospital, that was on of the hardest thing ive written to this day
