Death

A poem about my grandma that pass away few years ago. I miss her ;(

I see her laying on her bed,
I stared at her eyes all red.
I feel her heart stop beating,

Then tears pour from my eye,

as my mom opens the door, seeing me cry.
She saw her laying on her bed dying.
I told my mom, “It seems like she is dead.”
Death appearing in her house.
It came to take her away.
Her life will never be the same,
as she checks into heaven on this day.

Author's Note

I wish she was here still alive right now. :(

I do not know how I will feel when my grandmother passes away. I think I will cherish her memories but always curse life. Great emotional poem. Thoughtful and makes us realize what we have in this world is each other.

Death is never something that passes easy, I lost my grandmother too so know what you mean. But I will allways hold the memories of her close, she was a great person, and the best grandmother I could have ever asked for. Good job I'm sure she would be proud:D

I miss my Grandma too. A lovely poem and tribute to her and how you felt about her and the loss. Very haunting music to accompany your writing.

This made me tear up. I'm really close to my grandma--she raised me, took care of me even more than my mother did! I don't know what I'd do without her. This teaches you not to take anyone for granted!
