Goodbye

by Katy (Aquarius) - Not entered

I went walking one day,
Wondering what to say.
Not even knowing how or when,
But maybe soon I would begin.

Begin to tell you how,
How I feel about now.
I don't think I can face the fact,
The fact that they will not be back.

I cried and cried and cried.
I can't believe they died.
My grandparents were good to me.
I followed things they said to be.

There is no laughter here.
We have all shed a tear.
I wish they didn't have to go,
'Cause oh, dear God, I loved them so.

Reason for writing:

    This was the first poem I ever wrote - it was for a 9th grade English assignment.  My grandparents were very much alive at that time, but I guess I was mentally preparing myself for the inevitable.
