This is a poem about my grandpa. I would love your feedback.
You're fading,
farther,
farther,
into darkness.
Into your mind,
away from me.

You're fading,
quickly,
quicker,
to God.
To Heaven.
Away from me.

I want you here
for my comfort.
Is that selfish?
You're in pain,
but i'm keeping you in it.
Is that right?

You're fading,
deeper,
deeper,
into your body.
Into your soul.
Away from me.

You're fading,
closer,
closer,
to someone i don't reconize.
To someone i don't want to know.

You're fading
farther,
farther.
Away from you..
