The Day That You Went Home - In loving memory of my brother
We stood by your bedside, all holding hands full of tears
We held your hands and stroked your hair
watching you just lay there, without a smile or a laugh in sight
This was to be your last fight
We talked about your good times, for us they will never fade
We wanted you to feel the love, as we did love you more each day
We watched your every breath and prayed it wasn't the last
the time we got to share together went by too quick...far too fast
We wanted you to wake up please Jeff, not your last
Tell me its a nightmare and not our last goodbyes
As your last breath drew closer, our hearts sinking deeper
we were by your side, holding hands full of tears
This was our last good nights
Then, there it was...Your final breath of air
I did not want to believe it...This was not fair
We held your hands and were praying again
we were not ready, we did not want this
we had to understand you were now at rest
up high in the sky, shining your best
with no more suffering anymore
You were starting the life of the brightest star
We held your hands and squeezed you tight
It was time for us to say good night
All our hearts could do was cry
we will miss you Jeff so so much
We got up slowly, still praying it was not true
but one by one we leaned you, tears streaming down our faces
We kisses you and had to walk away
Saying our final good nights was the hardest thing evehiner in sight
but this was the time to say Jeff, our dear brother, Good Night
Sleep tight We love you
always and forever in our hearts
always and forever we love you oh so very much
Your loving warm smile and cheeky little laugh will remain with us and be part of our lives.
Shine brightly every night
Good Night and God Bless
You will always be the very best! xoxoxoxoxoxoxo...Kim
