Rest In Peace
Location
I sat there
Unworried, stress free
Or in other words calm and collected about the whole situation
Determined, expecting
Looking past the affection
Only concerned about our connection.
Forcing my tears to hide
Everytime I wondered what you was feeling deep inside
To your laughter, talks, that looked like happiness to me
You wanting to eat, singing your Sunday gospel songs, to the soap operas, news, had me in deinial of everything.
There was no way i was going to give up on my grandmo'
The furthest thing from my mind was that she would one day go.
Til' the sickness got sicker
And the time was approaching quicker
I started to realize that this was real
Nothing else could possibly heal
Wondering, what's the deal
How could this be?
Please don't give up on me
My thoughts got heavier
Too full for my own mind
Seriously in depression
Now noticing that i was crie'n
Left with no expression
Knowing that you were die'n
But yet still trie'n
Deep in thoughts about how i would react
Seeing you leave and never come back
It was hard to experiene that
Wondering if i would be calm and content
Or if I would be obnoxious and bent
And full of resentment
I received that call on the phone
"She gone"
Trying to make myself realize it was a good thing
God called her home
Wanting to sream
Needing a shoulder to lean
Broke out in tears
Couldnt hold it in
As i slowly eased the phone from my ears
Just experiencing that horrible feel'n
Sat down to the ground
Held my head in my shirt
In the thoughts of how it really hurt
The last words unfound
Regaining the past
And thinking of the present
Wouldnt think it would last
Now wanting that time to be meant
But to sum it up, you were an angel sent
Steady missing you
Don't know what to do
My broken heart
"I LOVE YOU" is what im wanting to hear you say
I feel so torn apart
If only we could go back in time for a day
Trying to release it off
To ease my stress
Still saying to myself "She was the BEST"
Now she's at peace
Now she's at rest
As the pain slowly decrease
I'll see you in a while
This poem is in sincere from your loving Grandchild.
