Goodbye Is Not Forever Poem by Autumn Winds

Goodbye Is Not Forever



A pretty blue sea
A dark drowning abyss

As I stare into space
In a half trance

As memories continue to
Swarm

Tomorrow is the last
The last day

That I will see your face
But you will never fade from my heart

Even as time ravages
What you once were

As you finally return to earth
You will live on in my heart

And all the hearts of those who
Loved and cherished you

It's hard
It's really hard to write these down

To think these thoughts
To hold back tears of loss

I miss everything about you
And I will remember you happy

Remember your best moments
I will try to help the little ones as best I can

But this is so hard
But I'm glad your not in pain

And you've finally gone
Peacefully

Tommorow is my last day seeing you
A lot of people's last day of seeing you

There is so much I want to say
But too much to fully write down

Because I think of new things
Every time a feeling over takes me

I love you Grandpa
And losing you is like a heavy burden I must carry

I miss you
I hope your somewhere better

Goodbye is not forever
It's only the beginning

Your loving granddaughter,
Autumn
