Marguerite

so grandma, they're putting a time on you
you are timeless and trusting
without you, I could never have witnessed life
I believe that God has a weird way of working around these things
across a border, I cannot escape to see you when I need to
for now on, I will keep praying he decides to keep you around
for my own selfish reasons, I love you

so grandma, you're still the same as I remember
you are worthy of all time and effort, trust me
without you, our family could never have been this way
I believe you will be in heaven where you deserve to be
across the borders people dare me to say, I know you will always live on
for now on, I will make new memories of you so I won't be able to regret this past year
for my own selfish reasons, I love you


-for my grandmothers
grandma c, I am so glad you are beating cancer
grandma r, I hope God is merciful and cures you
