A Final Goodbye

Published by Family Friend Poems July 2006 with permission of the Author.

It's hard for me to accept that you're gone
I'm trying not to think about it all wrong
I know that you're gone to a better place
But sometimes I just want to see your face
Knowing that you're never coming back
Making the whole idea of missing you seem so wack
I really can't explain what I'm trying to say
And why I'm thinking of you every day
Why won't these feelings just go away
You were more than my grandma, you were a friend
Someone who I thought would be there 'til the end
Just know that you can never be replaced
And I'm glad you won the race
But like the song says, it's so hard to say goodbye
I just really wish you didn't die
