Our Final Goodbyes

Trapped in a prison of a suffering body
They kept you alive for that fateful night
We surrounded you with our love
Lifting our songs above
I saw her take your hand, and her speech wrenched our hearts
Soon it was our turn as your finale approached
Last hugs and kisses, a squeeze of the hand
As tears fell from our eyes with our last goodbyes,
We all laughed together by your side
Your hands were still warm after you took flight
