PLEASE DON'T GO

The past was unbearable Had you by my side to make life a little bit easier to live Held my hand to help me cross the street Taught me to walk My first words were mommy So what now? This thing... This monstrous thing could be consuming you whole I don't know what to do I'm afraid to let you go I don't want you to leave Everyday you could be leaving me alone more and more Leaving me crying and scared What should I do? This monster, this thing could be Cancer What do I do? I'll stay with you for as long as I can I'll try and stay happy Make you proud I'll be strong just like you Face the world with my head held high But most importantly I'll be with you through it all But this upcoming birthday all I wish for is one thing Nothing special But mommy what I want from you? Just please don't go... Life won't be the same ever again I won't be the same I promise you that
