When Relatives Die Why is it when relatives die?
We never get to say goodbye
Although we show how much we care
We're never actually there
We hear the sad news
Then break down in tears
The one thing that comes to us
Is that we never said goodbye
The only time we get
To say our last goodbye's
Is such a sad event
We just sit there and cry
The family gets together
For the sad funeral
Then they talk of happy times
Like no one has really died
We all have our own way
Of dealing with a death
But I know from experience
All I can do is cry
I know my relatives are somewhere
Watching over me
They will never really know
What they meant to me
