爸爸在生命的最後幾周已無法吃喝任何東西。癌細胞肆虐在他的體內，阻斷了他所有的消化通道。醫生用２４小時全天的輸液和各種導管強行維持著他的生命。一個清晨，爸爸神誌無比清醒，堅決的拒絕了護士，不再接受任何輸液。我們都知道這意味著他將活不過３天，但我們順從了爸爸的意願。這首小詩是一年後，我在家附近的一個路口看到的。在那裏，一個騎自行車的少女的生命永遠停在了１９歲。幾年來那裏鮮花不斷，她的家人該是多麽的愛她，想她。每次經過那裏，心裏都鈍鈍地痛。直到有一天，那裏貼著這首小詩。我特意上前讀完，爸爸，這也是你想對我說的嗎？
"Miss Me But Let Me Go"
When I come to the end of the road
And the sun has set for me
I want no rites in a gloom-filled room
Why cry for a soul set free?
Miss me a little-but not too long
And not with your head bowed low
Remember the love that we once shared
Miss me-but let me go
For this is a journey that we all must take
And each must go alone.
It's all part of the Master's plan
A step on the road to home
When you are lonely and sick of heart
Go to the friends we know
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds
Miss me but let me go.
