Goodbye Forever

by Beautifully Broken   Sep 24, 2007


I wrote this for my nan when she passed away..and read it at her funeral.. it means alot to me..

Nan when you were in pain, wanting to be free,
You were waiting for the day when heaven gave you the key.
When that day finally came I was happy yet very sad.
Nan, your pain is all gone now, I bet your really glad,
But Nan that cant justify the pain of loosing you,
I dont know what on earth will help pull me through,
And now that your gone, Nan im torn into two.
A big part of me is missing, A huge part of my heart,
Nan when you slipped away we slowly fell apart.
Nan nobody warned me about how I would feel.
Theres nobody on this earth that could ever replace you.
You were so friendly and kind, with a heart made of gold,
You would wrap a blanket of love around us whenever we felt cold.
I know the hardest thing in life to bear,
Wanting your Nan and knowing she isnt there.
Nan do you know?
Its one of the hardest things we are asked to do,
Saying goodbye to the people we love.
it hurts that i wasn't there to hold your hand,
and say 'i love you' just one last time.
Nan i never got to say my last goodbyes,
and to see you safely on your heavenly climb.
I know deep down how heartbreaking it is,
But Nan I guess it helps having the comfort of knowing,
You are being taken care of by the angels above.
Nan thats why I know we all have to move on,
And finally realize that your gone.
Nan theres one last thing I dont understand, im sure we will be fine,
But Nan, why did God take you so soon.
Did God not know you were mine?
