How do you say goodbye to a dying friend?

How do you say I love you but
I won't see you again.
How do you say: all the good
times we had, I wish there were
more to come.
How do you say I love you,
but I won't see you again.

How do you say I miss you already.
How do you say you were so beautiful and full of joy
and in my memories you still are.
How do you say you'll always be in
my heart, but you won't be here
when I come back.


I tightened all the screws and squeezed
shut every pore, making sure not to let
out a drop of emotion.

Cry, Cry, I had to cry. But how do you look
into the eyes of you're dying friend with
tears...you might as well say;

Your dying, I love you, but I won't see you again.
