Little More TimeA Poem by Sports GirlLittle droplets fell from my face for hours I would feel her soft gentle touch whip them away She would sit there next to me never saying a word She’d wrap her loving arms around me She constantly listened to my unsteady breathing At night she’d snuggle up next to me and listen to my heart Tears would fall from her beautiful face seeping through my
shirt I’d rub her back softly hoping she would fall asleep I would stay for hours at night watching her sleep I’d cry when I realized I wouldn’t be able to do this much
longer I couldn’t understand why this was happening I loved her more than anything in the whole world She hated seeing me hurting ‘cause of her She always worried more about me then her own self She would act like nothing was wrong or happening I’d put a smile on my face to make her happy As days went by she became more fragile As days passed she looked less like my baby girl It grew harder to be in the same room as her But I couldn’t leave her side, so I’d stay Every day she would try so hard to be like my old baby She always wanted to be held in my arms She continued to listen to my breaking heart As the nights worn on the tears that fell increased Throughout the days she’d always whisper I’m sorry She tried to be as strong as she could be for me Whenever I looked at her the tears would begin to form Whenever I looked at her my heart would break She was supposed to be all mine always and forever I never thought that forever would end so soon It was my worst nightmare forming right in front of me I could never close my eyes long enough to sleep I would watch her chest move up and down I cherished every single breath she took in I listened to every one of her heart beats that I could I took in everything about her in a deep breath Tears started streaming down her face one day She whispered softly saying I’m sorry and I love you I didn’t understand what she meant by that She whispered one last thing to me quietly It’s still hard for me to sleep at night Images of her fragile body run through my mind I played the sound of her heart beats constantly I looked at the pictures of her just to see her smile The stars shine brightly tonight sparkling all across the
sky I sit on the porch looking up at them shimmering I replay the last words she said to me telling me to let her go Now sitting here I wish that I had a little more time…with her © 2010 Sports GirlFeatured Review
