Her musky, aged, antique smell. Every wrinkle on her face had a tale to tell. Cracks on her palms, treasured stories of hardships & struggles. Walked with a limp, like a boulder on her shoulder back. Didn't fall even with the deepest toe crack. I lay my head on her motherly warm lap. Her silvery smooth flowing hair, gleamed with pride for her only heir. She caressed my hair, sent chills down my spine. Don't you worry grandma, down here everything is (not so) fine. Wish you were here for me when I need you the most. I will be there in the stars, will meet you once I'm mighty close. I miss you, grandma.

Grandma
a lightning struck bending my elastic brain words trying to escape my thick confined skin dripping a story of an orchid around a pale pink swirl as every line, every rhyme grew through my bones took a break that I shouldn't have to take to loosen myself in the ***** room so were my thoughts loosen down the whirlpool   came back to a dried up nib to a smoked up lightning in the air to an unchargeable cloud over my hair alas, was left with a piece of paper staring right back at me with an empty verse
