A poem about the loss of my grandmother. |
2,000 days you've been gone I can say with every fiber of my being that I hope the ground you walk is your paradise I hope that worlds worth of happiness fill your atmosphere And I hope that you don't spend your eternity worrying about what could have been I'll swim in the ocean of the tears I never cried Because I know that your heart remains next to mine On the days I think endlessly about you I wonder if you could only see me now what would you think? I wish you could see me now See the wrongs I've made right And the rights that I've made wrong I miss you and the constant road of right you always showed me With the fact that you've been gone I've lost all control of myself The monster I see in the mirror is not who I am want to be It's just who I've become But I swear you are my guardian angel And someday soon your light will blind me and point me back in the right direction I miss the family that fell apart The family that passed away with you But in the end I know that whatever happened, happened with good reason And somehow we all grew okay with it in a sense If you could only talk me through a heartbreak Is the twisting in my stomach pain? How do you know when your heart is breaking? Things I would ask you if you were here. But you not being here has led me to believe I walk the earth alone That my other half is gone and sometimes that life itself is not worth it Deep down inside I know that isn't true But deep down inside I still think it is I wish I could hear your voice Feel your love Taste the days of when you were still here But all in all you're gone And there is nothing we can do about it but pray Pray that the world will recover from losing such a sweet soul like yours And even though you're not coming back You will forever live on in my heart |
