Till the end...
In memory of my friend Mary...
Till the end...
You helped me in times uncertain
When I felt my show was about over, u raised the curtain
When the days felt done for good
You held out your hand where I buckled & patiently stood
Among the second thoughts that now pass my mind
Each one with you is infinitely kind
I hold a cold hand for the final time till soil & tears surround what's left behind
Hear now, I shall stand as best I can, till tears fall & my composure begins to unwind
When that happens, forgive me for my pitiful tears & cries
To say I cared very little would be the biggest of lies
We weren't related by blood, but family is how you treated me
You gave wisdom with choice, & always answers heartfelt & free
You were like a grandmother to me & always will be
You gave what little you had, anytime, anywhere.....
You were an angel down here, I'm sure your one up there....
---To a great friend who did everything she could till the end---
I'll never forget you....promise...
