I search through this darkness, for just a flicker of light; Something to help guide me, through this unknown, without fright...
For just one millionth of a second, of her arms around me; A sacrifice well worth all this pain that I leave...
A comfort so familiar, as I revel in this peace; A feeling of pure happy, As she is here with me...
She may be disappointed, in the action's that I have taken; However unforseen; Yet she show's only a smile, as she reaches towards me...
Although darkness surrounds me, Above and Below; I can feel her arm's embrace me, with a strong grandmother hello..
I can feel her beating heart, as it presses into mine; This is where I belong, I've known it all the time.
I feel that if my face is smiling, as if it were to never leave; As the love coming from her eyes, leaves me content and at peace; As so gently, without fear; I Fade into sleep...
My grandmother took care of me from 6 months of age till she died... Adopted me at age 10. Died at age 12.. I've missed every day and it's been 42 years.
