Thinking about my Grandmother...

Saying goodbye when the time is too soon
grips u from the vessels of a healthy heart and weakens your loins
u often try to find the air to inhale and release happier breaths of hopeful tomorrows
the tears usually fall fiercely on shoulder blades so harsh tissues break easy
then like a glimmer of hope, memories surface and joy encompasses your soul
You remember to live and to hold on to your faith
You hold tight to your past
You forge strongly into your future with the embodiment of all the people who have past and left their legacy for you to carry on
But afraid bc you want to bear it proudly
No mistakes
Sorrowful you didn’t do more
Broken because you understand she understood
Unforgiving tendencies of self you search for love in all the wrong places
You battle the anecdotes of the "what if’s" you had more time and spent it better...
Hopeful that her love is strong enough to see pass your faults and she becomes your Angel!
Prayerful that one day it will get easier.
Praying for stillness in busy places and quiet in the midst of raging drums.




I miss you Mom Mom
In faith & struggle,
Love Donielle
