Robert Liebgott

I regret leaving everyone behind
I realize now how much I meant to them
I would always work for my family
But rarely take the time for me
Through my life I had some good times
But these last few months have been hell for me
There was just to much happening
I should have quit when I could
I knew the work was becoming too much.
All I thought of was trying to save everyone else
The tough times that everyone in the business felt
But the stress eventually got the better of me
My poor heart could take it no more
Thus I passed from the world
Never again to see my family
Never watching the boys play ball
Never to have good times with all my good friend
Most of all never to comfort my wife again
I wish that I could have just one chance
To go back and to let her know that I'm all right
