Hawaiian Music

"Sweet Leilani"

'You are my paradise completed,

You are my dream come true!’

We played Hawaiian music all during that christmas season

as you lay in the intensive care unit of the hospital.

We didn’t know you were dying; the truth was never shared.

You were afraid of the images on the television and

so we played music, Hawaiian music, the music you loved.

That music is playing now.

You will always by my sweet Leilani!
