Time May Heal – Written by Jade
Time will heal or so they say
It’s hard to find the words
My dearest Granny, where to start;
I miss you and it hurts my heart
Just the thought that you are no longer here
I will always hold those last days together near.
Time will heal, I remind myself
It’s hard to find the words
I hope you knew how much we care
Pictures igniting memories that have long been asleep;
I struggle to imagine you not sat there in your chair,
It is ok to weep.
Time will heal, I hope it’s true
I look for signs of you
A butterfly, a Robin near
Will they keep coming year after year?
The memories flood around me, they bring me comfort though I am sad
Baking, Reading, Shopping;
The memories make me glad.
Time will heal, or so they say
It’s hard to find the words
Lucky we were, for so many happy times
I think of you in the garden, in the sunshine
Remembering the sun has got his hat on
You always sang that song
It fills me with warmth and tears, the memories that are mine.
Time may heal but we will never forget
I will try to find the words
I wish I knew what you were trying to say
I wish I could hold your hand for another day
Our memories are truly treasure;
and you will live on in our hearts forever and forever.
