When I Saw You

RSS

By Austin Hoehn

when I saw you lying there so soft, still, with no look across your face, where there was usually a caring, loving, smile, now in it's place, was thin color drawn lips sealed so tight, you where always so lively and happy, but there you looked so colorless and cold, right then and there it felt like the world stopped... and all that was moving was the tears in my eyes, that's when I realized... that you have died, I try to be strong, I tried just to move along, but my heart pounded with lose and my body shook without you in my life, and everything was filled with strife, but eventually I started to relax I found love agian in family, and friends, and in the fond memories of you that will never end they will always be in my heart till death do I part. In Love and Memory of my father 1949-2001
