The Final Goodbye

This is a poem for my Nan  xxx   

I think of our last outing and the words that you said

As we placed the daisy’s upon your head

Just a few weeks later you were laid in a bed

And I was looking at you with eyes swollen and red

  

As I think of that day it’s with a sigh

I tried to speak but could only cry

But I had to stop, I had to try

For this was it, the final goodbye

 

I fell to my knees and began to pray

Begging for some kind of possible way

Trying to find something further to say

To stop the angels taking you away

 

I looked into your eyes and did it, I lied

“you can go, we’ll be ok” I said as I cried

But my emotions were almost impossible to hide

My heart broke into pieces the day that you died

 

It doesn’t matter how many times I ask why

I’ll never understand why you had to die

But now that you’re gone I know I must try

To say the words of my sad and final goodbye

 

goodbye Nan, love you always xxxxx
