"I wasn't there when my daughter died,"
Her voice broke with pain.
"I was on the way, but I...I wasn't there."
The thought haunts her,
As she raises her four orphaned grandkids.
"I wasn't there..."
I wish I could give her that good-bye.
She is there for her grandkids every day, every night.
So present, so mournful,
Pushing thru her grief.

She is there for her grandkids every day, every night.
So present, so mournful,
