Let His Soul Be Free
As I watch him lay in pain
I beg for mercy
He speaks in delirium
I listen
As his restless body aches
I tenderly comfort him
He reaches in the air
I hold his aged hands
As he once held mine
When I was small
I wear a blanket of grief
As he lays in a bed of death
The window is open
Let his soul be free
I beg for mercy
He speaks in delirium
I listen
As his restless body aches
I tenderly comfort him
He reaches in the air
I hold his aged hands
As he once held mine
When I was small
I wear a blanket of grief
As he lays in a bed of death
The window is open
Let his soul be free

Was that an elder relative? Was thinking not heard from you some time on DUP.

Oh this was heartbreaking.
"I hold his aged hands
As he once held mine
When I was small" these lines were so vivid and emotional.
Sorry for your loss.
