Goodbye

Goodbye I see her now as if it was yesterday The pillows were her head once lay Eyes filled with tears, ready to shed Looked art me as I stood by the bed Trembling lips that whispered words; So quiet they were unheard I knew just what they were Just for us to share I turn to go turn, look back Before my heart does crack And tears tumble down my cheeks No solace can I seek How can life be so cruel to one? That never has any harm done But loved her family so long Yet can’t be where she belongs With a forced smile, I wave and walk Away; too upset to even talk Not knowing it is the last time I ever see that darling mum of mine …..
