To many emotions
swimming around in my head
make it stop make it slow down
non of the meds do that,, just slow me down physically
my head still going what to do next
what to take care of,, who to take care of
you lay there motionless in your coffin,
you body does but your soul still remains here
guiding me and darla both, why we ask
then have to quickly turn the subject
I am still having moments of
why was i not here when she knocked on the door to check on him
she still regrets just not knowing
now we have to pass and just move on
but never to be forgot
that day still seems like a nightmare
that i am waiting to wake up
the pain in everyone eyes
and the determination of mine not to cry
to hold everyone together
deal with the officals
deal with the a grieving widow
who held on me to me for days
now we stand united strong in what we have to do
her partner gone and life is having to go on
and then there is me,,,, alone in this not dealing totally
just on auto-pilot
running through the motions carrying out request
and still making calls
right now i want to be held
i have held everyone else
but no one has held me,, i am ready now
ready to cry and grieve
ready to say goodbye
but not sure i can do it alone.....
alone which i have not felt in awhile
alone an emotion i wish to not have
but i i guess that is better then numb
where everyone thought i didn't care
i am just not sure i can do it alone!

perfect synthesis of the inner feeling at times like these. ultimately the base reason human beings cannot go through life totally dependent on themselves.
