Worn and weary too tired to press on
An endless battle you’ve been fighting for so long
Often sitting silently watching you drift away
Choking on the word goodbye still something I cannot say
It wasn’t that I was afraid of you breaking don’t you see
To hold you in my arms would only break me
One tries to let go as another hangs on
Haunting was the melody as we sang the last song
I’ll pull you in close for it will be my last chance
James do me the honor can I have this dance
Cassandra Kaye Schafer ~ Garduno
I wrote this for my precious Baby James' prayer vigil. I was always afraid of holding him with all his tubes. On September 18th, 2010 I got to hold him one last time.
