One More Moment ....

I can never describe my loss into grief
You were stolen like a thief would take his jems
You were the jewel I grew with 
You taught me much and now I need you so much
When all was crumbling inside you reached for me 
You knew my spirit you knew me well
My love My friend My everything 
As a young girl I laughed with you 
Your smile I hold dear I miss your tender kiss 
I love still with a unbearable pain thats deeper than deep
Too me I grew knowing you were by myside 
And now I need your loving arms they are not there
Just held inside of me I want to be where you stand now 
To see the light that shines within my grandmothers heart
I want to hide inside your loving mind 
Your smell of sweetest perfume on my cheek 
Your powder on my sleeve and lipstick was never was far
If only I could sit and speak to you just once more
It all seems so far away now but still I crave 
Just to say I love with all my heart and to give you a smile 
Just one more minute is all I needed no I lie just one more life for us to share
I love my grandmother oh yes even though I miss you with so much despair
I promise to be the girl you loved the woman you watched grow 
The mother in me you were proud to share with me 
But I still wish you could be there to make my fears leave ....

I will always miss my grandmother x

A heart felt poem Sarah, your grandmother had so much affect on you and your life. The sad thing is when they pass the effect takes a different sad affection. Thanks for sharing your dedication of warmth with us here at the soup,..p.d.
