Can You See Me?

by Unknown_Cure

You were always there, and always knew what was wrong. I'm not too happy you're gone. Your pretty smile has melted away, and you're blue eyes have faded to a stone cold grey. I look around when I'm afraid or sad, than remember you're not here. Can you see me? My mom and other family members say you're in a better place. Ever since you left to that better place, life has moved at a slower pace. I'm sad you're not here, I try not to show tears. I miss you, and want you to come back. Can you see me? You and I used to sit outside and sip tea. We would talk in secret and laugh all day long. But, I can't do that anymore since you're gone. Please come back... I know where you are, but am upset you are there. Don't be sad that I'm sad, don't you dare! I stare at the sky on this calm evening, still wondering life's meaning. Question: Can you see me?

Notes

I was very close with my grandma, but she's gone. And I am forever in her debt, for all her kindness, all her lessons on life and all the things she taught me... What did I do in return? Get in trouble and not care about myself even though she always told me to take care of myself.

So that's why, grandmother, I'm sorry, and will forever be in debt.
