The Visit Dedicated to Terry
You enter my room with your head down,
as if you are afraid of what you will see.
As your heart feels heavy and low,
mine is rejoicing to see you once again.
You have been my friend for many years now,
and have shared so much of your life with me
as I have with you.
Now it is almost my time to move down a different path.
One that you will have to face alone, also, at a different
time and place.
You struggle to hide the tears and heartbreak as you speak
with me.
I try to assure you that all is ready and I am ready also,
but you choose not to hear these words.
My breathing is labored and I tire quickly
and you prepare to leave as the time is almost up.
I want to thank you for being my friend all this time
and tell you how much I love you, for overlooking my
faults and concentrating on my virtues.
Rejoice in my crossing over, for me.
My pain and suffering will have ended.
When it is your time, I will be there waiting for you
on the other side, to pick up our love and friendship
in a far better place, where we will never have to
wish each other good bye again.
