If Only...

That day when I said

"See you later",

I never knew "later"

Would turn out to be "never".

You were struck down

By your brain tumor

That caused a fit of

Never-ending seizure.

Not wanting you to suffer

We put you to sleep forever

Leaving me frantically

Trying to find closure.

If Only...

If only I could tell

That day you weren't feeling well

I would've gone for help

Wouldn't have left you by yourself.

If only I had a magic wand

I would've made you strong

Your disease would've been gone

Nothing could've broken our forever bond.

If only I could've had one more day

Before the angels took you away

I would've held you in an embrace

And gently stroked your face

I would've told you to be brave

And that you'd be safe.

If only I had known

That was our last goodbye

I would've tried not to cry

But stayed right by your side

I would've sung you a lullaby

And let you know

You're my joy and my pride.

If Only...
