Slipping Away

Kiss your forehead 

For one last time 

Take a chance to remember 

The good and bad

All memories now consigned to the past

 

Slipping away

Right in front of us 

No pause button in sight

Just a deterioration of how you once were

 

An eerie calm falls over the ward

Like you are just sleeping 

Not a care in the world 

In your own wee world 

At this moment in time, it seems a beautiful place to be

 

Slipping away 

Slipping away

Slipping aw...!

 

There is a peaceful beauty to it all
