Time is no longer on my side, <br />As you slowly slip away from me. <br />I know soon I will lose you, <br />As much as I wish it wouldn't be. <br />Everyone faces death in their life, <br />But I'm not ready to see you die. <br />It can't be your time to go, <br />As I refuse to say goodbye. <br />I will not let you go now, <br />You cannot leave me on my own. <br />As I know when you do go, <br />I will be all alone. <br />People will keep on living their lives. <br />And the world will carry on spinning. <br />But I don't think I can go on without you, <br />Life will not be worth living. <br />I will still dream about you every night, <br />You will always be on my mind. <br />I will meet you in heaven, <br />And our love again will entwine. <br />I will never forget your beautiful smile, <br />Your hugs and kind words. <br />You will soon be free from this hell, <br />And fly away like a bird. <br />I will always love you, <br />I never thought I'd see you die. <br />I used to think you would live forever, <br />Now all I can do is cry. <br />I know you will be happy wherever you are, <br />But it doesn't stop the pain. <br />I can't believe this is really real, <br />My life is heading towards the drain.<br /><br />EMMA Funnell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/nanny/
