Cold To Touch Upon

And you've never truly felt so meek

In the midst of a loved turned bleak;

Their face is there, memories too,

But their breath has left, their love too.

 

So to say goodbye is a step too late

For the one you loved has left for fate.

And whilst they have gone, you have stayed

To carry on a bit less great. 

 

These people who've nurtured us grown

Will never get back what they've sown.

And naught is clearer in fresh grief

Than the ways in which we were all too brief.
