The Date That Never Came

Two weeks ago
I came to see you.
But two weeks ago
I didn't have a clue.

You'd leave me on earth
Without saying goodbye.
The oxygen told me
something wasn't right.

No food no drinks
just a dose of morphine
you took to ease your pain.
So helpless and vein.

At that moment,
I would've given my life
to switch places with yours,
so you could be alright.

But powerless I sat
beside you that day.
And hopeful I was
that you'd be okay.

Inside I burned,
Inside I screamed,
Inside I cried, but
Inside I dreamed.

That in two weeks time
you'd be fine
and we'd be going
out to dine.

Just like we planned,
a date for dessert
After doctors finished
internal revert.

Two weeks later,
it was going good.
Doctor was on top
Everything was understood.

But just as I feared,
something wasn't right.
As the oxygen said,
the end may be in sight.

I've never had
a happy ending.
This is not an exception,
unfortunately.

Your time had come
to say goodbye,
to leave this earth,
to be alright.

I lost you that day,
and I don't know why.
But I do know
you're up in the sky.

With the rainbows,
and the clouds.
where everythings better,
with everything sound.

A date that never came
for you and me.
But a date that forever,
will be in my dreams.

In loving memory of someone special. ♥
