ONE LAST TIME

Thought you were getting better
Just had to give it time
I waited, sat there patiently
Just looking for a sign.

Was feeling somewhat hopeful
The plan was surgery
Who knew you wouldn’t make it?
Just wasn’t meant to be.

Your color gray and ashen
Your lips were turning blue
I knew it, something had gone wrong
I was losing you.

The crash cart and the scurrying
I knew it was the end
They tried, but couldn’t save you
I begged them …. “Try again!”

I kissed you for the last time
Held your hand in mine
Told you that I loved you
Told you ….. one last time.
