I Swear

For you, Gran- I love you!



I swear..
I saw you come in last night,
You breezed, with ease through the midnight sky.
You were quick & beautiful
But you caught my eye.

I swear..
I heard you come in last night,
You whispered in my ear.
You tried to be quiet, quick,
But I knew, I heard you here.

I swear..
I felt you come in last night,
Wrap your arms around my waist.
You stood over me & comforted me
After another day that went unfaced.

I swear..
I felt you close last night,
Although we’re stars and moons apart.
Ever since that night you left us,
I always feel you in my heart.
