Goodbye

by Brianna   Dec 9, 2006


I never really knew you
We've only met once or twice
I don't remember much, it's true
But I'm sure you were really nice

I think you had brown hair
And maybe the same for your eyes
Your family weeps because you're no longer there
I watched as your friends cried

Your husband was strong
I think he was going to be okay
But I haven't known him for long
So it's hard for me to say

What were you like?
Were you independent and strong?
Did you like to draw, did you like to hike
Did you ever write a song?

I'm told that you have some...
Well, features, just like me
I won't say, but it isn't my hair, isn't my bum
But somewhere in between

I don't know what else to say
You're not here to talk to
You've already passed away
I wish I could've known you

I'm gonna go now
To try not to think about how it feels
I just have to learn how
To roll along with these creaky wheels

You've passed away
And as sad as it may be
It's now time to say
Goodbye, Auntie B
