A Walk Down Memory Lane

"A million words wont bring you back, I know because I've tried,
Neither will a million tears, I know because I've cried"

Remember when you held me in your arms way back when?
All I want is to see your face once again

After you left, all I felt was pain,
Myself I often blamed

The harder I tried to bring you back,
The more my life turned black

You told me several times that you loved me,
We were Great Grandmother and Great Granddaughter...best friends; just you and me became we

I went to see you practically every day,
You were never lonely with me there...so you'd say

When you got sick that Christmas Eve,
I never let go...I still do believe

Three times...I went to see you and you were in that hospital bed,
Tubes down your throat...every time I went to see you my heart bled

On January 15, 2000...my best friends birthday, you left my side,
I never let go and I couldnt
No matter how hard I'd try

Sometimes I feel I've gone insane,
But no matter how many good memories there are, there are always the bad ones that contain the pain

In memory of Norma Luck,
Deceased January 15, 2000
