CAMELOT FANTASIES

SOULS FLY AWAY
(dedicated to my aunt Joan 1939-2017)

My heart, is at a low today.
My aunt, is slowly slipping away.
Cancer, is getting its way.
Taking, another life to stay.
Oh the feelings, wishing them to cast away.
I wish I could, rip my heart out today.
Then no longer, could I feel the pain.

Having another, hard day today.
My mind, doesn't want to play.
Instead, it wants to runaway.
Hiding, from the pain.
Loosing the fight, to it's claim.
Bringing sadness, into my life's way.
All I can do, is pray.
That they'll leave, gently on their way.

My heart is feeling, empty again.
How I hate, that domain.
Everytime, I loose someone.
Back to, this place again.
Why can't, the pain abstain.
When their souls, have flown away.
Heaven gets, another angel today.
