My Son's Reply

While you were sleeping I sat by you side
I watched over you and all the tears you cried
While you were sleeping I sat for a while
I touched your cheek and seen how you smile
While you were sleeping God sent me from above
To watch over and protect you with all of our love
While you were sleeping I heard you scream
Reliving the nightmares of the sights you seen
I didn't leave you to cause you this much pain
My life was done I had nothing left to gain
I feel so bad as I watch you weep
Knowing the pain and the grief so deep
If you only knew the extent of my sorrow
You would understand today and tomorrow
It is so sad to see you this way
If you could only hear the words I say
I would say don't weep for me
I am in heaven for eternity
The beauty and peace that I have know
If you could only experience this somehow
I know in your heart you would be
Free of all pain and grief for me
