Happiness cannot last

by just a poet   Jun 11, 2006


On a sunny springs day,
I stood watching my mothers pale face,
Her blood shot eyes,
The tear tracks down her face were evident.

Looking into my motherâ??s eyes,
Knowing I was to find something dreadful,
Something that would change my life,
She looked at me and said,
Her voice breaking,
Your grandfather is dead.

Everything starts spinning,
Darkness closes round,
Nothing is standing still,
All around is a blur.

Running up the stairs,
Tears streaming down my face,
My grandfatherâ??s face in my head,
His voice ringing in my ears,
Memories of the fun we had,
Slowly I rerealizey worse fears.

Remembering my merry past,
Knowing that my fun cocould?t last.

    :( nothing lasts in this world. that's the sad thing. and then in some way, it does last. don't cry... he'll never have to feel pain like anything on earth. he's in heaven.

    3 of my grandparents died around the time before i was born to a year after i was born.

    my only living grandparent is my grandma, and i love her to death. i kno how u feel. death is one of the scariest things in the world, no matter how old you are. in some ways i'm not scared of anything, and in other ways i'm scared of everything.

    tell me how ur feeling, ok?
