What If I Can't Say Goodbye
As I walked into the building people were watching me
But, I didn't notice
I walked over to you
I touched your sweet face
I tried not to cry, but the tears they were always there
I tasted the tears of anger and sorrow.
I tried to tell myself it's all a dream maybe even a joke
But then I remembered that dreams aren't supposed to hurt you
I also realized that Chuck was not breathing
No, stop, something wrong!
Someone help him, the jokes gone wrong and no ones laughing only tears
A friend holds me close whispers
It's alright, look he's smiling"
I say why won't he wake up?
As I lean over and touch, his cold pale face.
I pause...Then one last time I plead
"Chuck please wake up, I won't be mad."
But still and frozen Chuck still lies.
I must leave I put the white rose on his casket
But I still can't say goodbye.
