Dear grandmother

Dear grandmother,

if u can hear me right now, please send me a sign
life hasnt't gone my way ever since you died
that one sad july day
i wish i could've talked to you when you
were still concious
i was scared to hold your hand
afraid that you might stop breathing
you already stopped any ways all that
kept you alive was that machine pumping
air into you
the doctor came in and said only a
mircale can save you now
they had a priest come in and
he had us pray
i prayed as i cried that god the almighty one
wouldn't taken you from me,
that he would grant me this miracle
but sadly he didn't he took you
from us without a word you left
when your spirit had left your body
and sent you to heaven
there awaited my grandfather
although i never met him
he always seemed like a nice person
from your stories and the way you
described him
i wish you were here to comfort me in my
time of need
you were the one that made me feel like i was
on top of the world the one that
showed me the way to be strong and never give up
you'd always make jokes and had every one dying in laughter
i miss that laugh so engeretic,
so full of life like you
your personality fit you perfectly
nice and snug like a sweater or shirt
i'd always run to you when my dad yelled at me
and when i felt unloved
i remember so clearly those two
days of your viewing services
i remember i came in walked through
those doors and walked down to your
casket there you layed so at peace
and beautiful your pretty gray hair
put up and your face powdered pale
i remember i cried hystarically when i walked up to u
so did my mom she criend and started screaming " why did you
leave us, you abandoned us, you said you'd never leave"
i felt so bad i had to sit down tears streaming down my face
they felt so cold like ice like a icy cold river flowing
never stopping
i just sat there remebering all the memories and every thing about
you from your laugh to your stories
the way you'd always spoil me whenever my mom wouldn't buy
me what i wanted
i remember we'd go to imperial beach and i'd push you in your wheel chair
down the peer and i'd scare you half to death cause i put you near the opening looking down at the sand and water
people surfing that day was cold and windy
i remember all these things
and as i sit here i know your watching me
without you i don't know who i would be right now
you made me who i am
thank you grandmother.

this poem is dedicated to my grandmother Ana Morales Lim
March 18,- - July 25,2001 she died at the age of 82 she was
full of life but yet i didn't know she was slowly dying inside
R.I.P i'll meet you at the gates of heaven one sweet day until that
day comes i love you more than the world and i miss you so much.
