lyrics

We Took Short Journeys...

I dreamt you were here
I dreamt you were driving
Or I was driving
I thought you were angry
You were different but the same.
You were animated and passionate.
You were powerful and you weren’t fading away.
You will never fade away.
We took short journeys
Ran errands
We gathered your things
Your belongings
We tucked them in the open backed truck.
You were up first.
Ready first until the end.
You were up last and couldn’t move.
You were stuck, slowed down.
Too sick to cry.
Too slow to balance.
Too weak to speak.
You hated it.
You were angry and hated it.
You would rather leave than go through this hell.
Not disappear, just not be like this.

How was it not yesterday?
How was it nearly a year?
We are changed
We are warmer
We care more and ache more.
Our hearts are broken.
Forever
We love you
Forever 
We will need you

Forever

(words by Laura Cannell 2020)
