The Last Thing

The last thing I saw
On your face was
A tear, as it rolled
Down your beautiful face
You're breathing became shallow
You took one more
Suddenly, there was silence
No more breathing
You were gone and now all is lost
You were the glue that held
The family together and the
Last of the old school
