Why? Why? Poem by Sophie Shaw

Why? Why?

Rating: 4.5


Why? Why?
Was I so far away,
In the sun,
Happy,
But then,
The bad news came,
You've passed on to a better place,
A place where you can watch over me,
As I mourn you,
And ask myself why,
I never got to say goodbye,
To someone that meant so much,
To someone like me,
Love always,
Rest in peace.

This was nothing to do with you, you had no part in it whatsoever. No one could have stopped it no matter how much they wanted to. Love you x
