Poems and Stuff Part 2

Less than a Year

I went to the doctor today,

and didn't like what he had to say.

-

"Less than a year for the pain you'll endure,

with what you have there is no cure.

Less than a year ma'am, at best,

go home and make your burial request."

-

Less than a year to live my life,

why not end it now with this knife?

Less than a year I have left in this world,

to love and hold dear my boy and girl.

-

Less than a year to watch my babies play,

to love and cherish them each and every day.

Less than a year to give my goodbyes,

to all my loved ones before I die.

-

Less than a year to hold you tight,

to tuck you in and kiss you goodnight.

Less than a year to see your beautiful face,

the smile on your lips my fingers trace.

-

Less than a year to hold your hand,

to sit on the beach and play in the sand.

Less than a year to run by your side,

through the woods to the lakeside.

-

Less than a year to sway in your arms,

to laugh, love, and get lost in your charms.

Less than a year to hear you sing,

to stay up all night and see what dawn brings.

-

Less than a year comes way to fast,

to leave the impressions I want to last.

Less than a year to complete my goals,

do them now cause I'll never grow old.

-

Less than a year isn't very long,

c'mon now, help me stay strong.

Less than a year I'll grow weak,

you better smile, don't you weep.

-

Less than a year to make memories with you,

to show you deep in your heart what is true.

Less than a year I can barely move,

this is all happening way to soon.

-

Less than a year laying in this bed,

not even able to lift my head.

Less than a year has finally come,

no more fighting the pain, it's done.

-

Less than a year, I'm lowered in the ground,

all my loved ones gathered around.

Less than a year all the friends I've made,

have come to say goodbye at my grave...
