Your body is weak
Your mind is leaving
Your skin is thin

I know soon you must go
That it will all soon end

Lingering wisps of happier times
The sent of perfume and cleaning supplies
Pictures of faces from long ago

I just can't seem to let you go

Ghosts of those loved linger by the door
Waiting for you to follow them home
They know its time to go

I scream out no
I beg for you not to go
I pray for one more day
I weep for I can't make you stay

Life will move on
I know that true
But I will always miss you
Please Don't go
