You feel like you're beaten <br />You know the reason why <br />You want so much to fight this <br />But all you can do is cry <br /> <br />The doctor's give you little hope <br />Your chances are slim next to none <br />How can this be happening <br />When life was just getting to be fun <br /> <br />There's many things you want to do <br />So many places to see <br />But now you don't know <br />How that could ever be <br /> <br />You're feeling a little worse each day <br />Though people say you look good <br />You say you'd dance on a moon bean <br />If you only could <br /> <br />As the summer days <br />Slowly dwindle away <br />The time you have to live <br />Grow shorter with each passing day <br /> <br />As the season's start to change <br />There are changes in you as well <br />I know that when you pass on <br />You'll go heaven, not to hell <br /> <br />I know God has a place for you <br />High above the sky <br />Once you are back home <br />You'll have no more reason to cry <br /> <br />All the hurt and pain you felt <br />Will then all be gone <br />You'll be looking down upon us <br />As our live's continue on <br /> <br />But when my time on earth <br />Has come to it's end <br />I will look for you <br />When I get to heaven my friend <br /> <br /> <br />9-16-06/RJH<br /><br />Ray Hansell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-dying-friend-when-i-get-to-heaven/
