Days Before
 
I have never been one
To accept what I see
As reality for all to be.
 
I have always questioned
Everything I have seen
As what if, and what could be.
 
Mother, days before
Entering the light
You smiled with serenity.
 
Father, days before
Entering the light
You fought with insanity.
 
What if, I wasn’t there?
Could it have been different?
Is this what it is for all to be?

I think your being there for them made it easier for them ,perhaps harder for you in some ways, but think how you'd fell if you hadn't been there. It was ment to be that way. Nothing we can say or do will change it...M

The eternal question. We each have to find our own path.
John says it all.

I finished your book.
Certainly, if you were not there- "there" would have been a hell of loneliness and fear.
With you- "there" became a place of warmth and comfort, or as close as it could get.
No questions here Deb.

John
