Love Poem: - Goodbye Dad -

- Goodbye Dad -

Silence ...
  deep ...
overwhelming silence
Your arduous journey ...
- with fire and sulfur

A hand to hold
Words for comfort
A cold cloth on your forehead
Moisten your mouth
- wipe your tears

I will follow you to the gate
- but you must go in alone
The sleep of death
Where your soul has now returned

          ... bottomless sorrow
- at the deathbed
I whispered goodbye ... "I love you a lot"
