May I Go?
by Susan A Jackson

May I go now?
Do you think the time is right?
May I say good bye to pain filled days,
And endless, lonely nights?

I’ve lived my life and done my best,
An example tried to be.
So can I take that step beyond,
And set my spirit free?
I didn’t want to go at first,
I fought with all my might.
But something seems to draw me now
A warm and loving light.

I want to go, I really do
It’s difficult to stay.
But I will try as best I can
To live just one more day.

To give you time to care for me,
And share your love and fears.
I know you’re sad and afraid,
Because I see your tears.

I’ll not be far, I promise that;
And hope you’ll always know,
That my spirit will be close to you
Wherever you may go.

Thank you so for loving me.
You know I love you too.
That’s why it’s hard to say good bye,
And end this life with you.

So hold me now just one more time,
And let me hear you say.
Because you care for me so much
You’ll let me go today.

 

All of my love, Peanut.
You'll always be in my heart and soul.
