The Golden Angel by Robert Jones

The Golden Angel (In Remembrance of Marylyn Jones my Grandmother)

I miss you

I was so young, how could I understand

You were so sick, but always so strong

You were so bright, you always made our day

It wasn’t your choice, but you had to go

It wasn’t fair, I was so young

I knew it was best, but I could never understand

Understand the pain inside you

The disease, draining your life

Then we found out you had passed

Now I’m sitting here writing this letter

I miss you
