For her eyes are closed

She spoke to me
once a day
about life
and love

My grandma
WAS a good lady
never let me go on alone
put her arm around me
and told me about life

My grandmother
was my best friend
she always was there
when my mother wasn't

It happened so fast
she was gone
to fast
I was only 15
when the call
to my mom and me
It said the hurtfully
words

COME NOW
YOUR GRANDMOTHER
is DIEING
I lay next to her side
as her life past away
slowly and SAD

I haven't gotten much sleep
scents that night
I go over the words
About Life that she spoke to me
