Rocky |
| Sons: remember your fathers |
| Deathmyhangingdoorway |
| The day before I watched you sleep |
| You were slipping |
| You were letting your pain go |
| The body didn’t match the heart |
| Your pain was seeing us |
| Because we loved you so much |
| I understood why people say |
| «I would have traded places with you» |
| I would have instantly |
| You didn’t deserve to have breath be short |
| Your lungs were weak from birth |
| The body didn’t match your heart |
| Your heart was too big for your body |
| Even though it had withered away |
| Deprived of oxygen |
| A smile never left your face |
| You were never bitter or angry |
| Never sour or upset |
| You loved us unconditionally |
| Trust God |
| Love God |
| Know that there is a plan |
| I saw no plan other than the taking of a good man |
| Every time I saw you I was angry |
| And every single time you’d look right at me |
| I wanted to curse the creation that made you suffer |
| You told me to be at peace |
| Strangely |
| I could |
| Because of your strength |
| March 8th |
| Mid-morning |
| My mom, my sister and I |
| I never watched someone I love die before |
| Mallory stood up and got sick |
| My mother was beside herself in relief and disbelief |
| Finally you could rest |
| I remember looking at my mother to try and see her face |
| I can’t remember her face |
| I can’t remember how she looked |
| She had been taking care of my dad every moment of every day |
| After we went home |
| After we cleaned up and did the dishes |
| After the football game when the pain of what life had become |
| Draped like stars over their shared sky |
| Love is not a burden |
| Love is a sun |
| I see the purple light |
| Dad, if somehow you can hear me |
| I’m sorry that this song isn’t all it should be |
| I love you so much |
| Thank you for being the greatest man I’ve ever known |
| I miss you more than I can comprehend |
| Sometimes I feel like you’re going to call me |
| Like somehow it wasn’t real |
| Even though I took care of your body |
| When it grew cold in that warm bright room |
| I knew you were gone |
| Still I had to touch your face and pull back your hair |
| When I kissed your forehead and held your neck |
| I felt your love even then |
| Goodbye, Dad |
| I’ll see you in the next life |
| I’ll always be your son |
