Donald Hull Iii Poet Classicism

Hey Grandma Thank You

hey grandma, i want you to know
that you surely know im still here below
i will never forget the lonely nights
when you were there to turn off the lights

you lived through the holocaust
how many peices of your heart did that cost?
you looked up in the bright blue sky
when the ones around you died

you were very strong and brave
the times it was food you crave
you took a deep breathe and shut your eyes
wishing time would just fly by

letting go of all you know
going to bed with dead ones below
just thinking in your mind
oh why, cant i just go blind

seeing the dead all around
and people hitting the cold ground
the "angel of death" looks from afar
waiting for new twins to tear apart

why did you have to leave
and left me these tears of grief
i wanted to know more
of the life you lived behind hells doors
