I sat there and watched her, helplessly fighting for every breath.
The doctor said she would die today, so all of the family left.
My grandfather cried and said I cannot leave your side.
Although I do not want to see you go, I have to stay to say goodbye.
Loved this poem. It's the ones that have the most emotion that are the best. When presented this way, death can almost seem like a beautiful transformation, not a depressing time in life....

As I sit here writing this with tears rolling down my cheeks,

Thank you my friend for all you have done for me.
You help me to forget my past, you help me go to sleep.
