Sadness

I woke up that morning and heard the worst news
I have never ever felt so sad and I had the worst blues
My beautiful nan had passed away
How could this happen in just one day
The night before we had so much fun
I just don't get why nothing could be done
A year went by and I was still feeling sad
Then what happened next was really bad
I was woken up suddenly to more terrible news
And everyone around me were in such shocked moods
My baby brother so tiny and small
Who didn't even get the chance to start to crawl
Went to heaven and wasn't coming back
I said my goodbyes and that's the day
I had my very first panic attack
It’s been a few years and sometimes I still feel sad
But knowing my nan and brother are together makes me feel glad
