a letter to my grandmother

true
the others have left you
but you have left others
who will never leave you
but will leave each other
this perpetual cycle
confusing
and comforting
giving
what is left
to those left
to give

And you are loved. And missed. xo

Love the way you've weaved this poem: it says what it does and it does what it says. And agree with the idea it promotes. Life has its downs, but there are many ups, too... We just need to remember the ups, when the circle is going down... That way, we can keep from falling.

I feel this one. Deeply. It makes me sad and angry at my life. Maybe we are all the same after all.
