| May I go now? Do you think the time is right? May I say good-bye to pain-filled days and endless long 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 to 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 so 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 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 so much for me, you�ll let me go today. Susan A. Jackson |
