It's hard to put words into place
When life takes a turn from grace

It's hard to know what to do
When everything means something to you

Do you go for what's right?
Or do you hold onto to your pride
Hug those feelings close to you
Instead of leaving them behind in the past to be historical.

Grief is felt in the loss of everything
Even if it's only fifty year old objects —
They travelled with you in the journey of life
But they decay faster as you strive

Although cared (for)
They're unprepared

They can't catch up, and decay
Worn by the years, turned frail

So we'll grieve
Because although they held no conversation
They held warmth and gave the illusion of stability

Even when they fell apart at the touch of a finger
The need to hold on would linger

So we grieve
And make any goodbyes brief
