Goodbye
I think I’ve known you were leaving for a while but
I just didn’t want to admit it

Goodbye
It was 4am
Tuesday 10th of February

Goodbye
You’ve given me a lot of memories
Ones I hope I’ll remember until I leave too

Goodbye
You left awhile ago
A long time since I saw you
I miss you
I wish you were here
Maybe I would be better if you were

Goodbye
It’s been 10 years
Since I saw you last
Since I saw you were here
Since I had a father figure

I was 7
I’m still unsure if the memories of you are real
Are mine
Or if someone told me about these memories I’m supposed to have

Goodbye
I miss you still
I’ll never stop

Goodbye
I don’t like to think of you
It scares me
It makes my eyes water

Goodbye
I like to pretend you’re still here
It makes it easier to breathe
Like every day isn’t my imagination just continuing without you
It makes it easier to cope

Goodbye
This is about my grandfather who died 10 years ago. I love you Deda
