I wrote this one the day Liz told me she was going to die. Today my grief was almost too great so I share this now...
Don’t go away, just yet, please.

I hear your weak voice and my heart cries.
You are too young to die.
Once, you and I had been so close,
You gave my teen memories a reason to boast.
Time had a way of keeping us apart,
And life without you is bleak and dark.
Now we chat almost every day,
And for you every night I pray.
Don’t go away, just yet, please.
I find myself on my knees.
To lose you I will not accept,
What else can anyone expect?
To bow down is not my way,
So I beg God to let you stay.
“Let her stay here as long as it takes,
until there are no more medical mistakes.”
I plead with every last bit of myself,
To get a dose of miraculous help.
Until that day comes I will not break,
I won’t show weakness, for both or our sakes.
So, Don’t go away, just yet, please.
For someday I’ll have nothing left…but to weep.
