I sit in the front row, very first seat
I'm shaking and sweating, I'm trembling with heat
A heat in my face, that's making me run cold
As hot tears stream down my face, leaving lines so bold
I try not to make a sound, but bursting out is impossible
For I cannot help, my my nervous despair
But it was all so sudden
Yet, no one seemed to care
So with everyone sitting there, quiet, and silent
I sat there, crying, so violent
I didn't want to be there, I wanted to go home
Where I could sit and cry, by myself, alone
This is a poem that was about what I felt at the funeral I went to that was held for my great-grandmother. I was very emotional because I spent a lot of time with her and I was one of the only great-grandchildren that she had that would spend hours upon hours with her.
