My grandfather is the one
who held me first, and since
then so many children were
born in our home and some
died even but he loved me
the most with all his heart.
But the past few nights, watching
him lay motionless on the bed,
and breathing feebly and heavily,
I realized it is time for us to bid
adieu, for it is not long before we
wonтАЩt be able to run away from
the fact and eventually the truth
will catch up.
The truth with which he has made
his peace and me on the other hand
still trying to deny that this beautiful
the story will end someday.
I donтАЩt know whom I will turn when
everything in my life crumbles but
I know his blessings, teachings, and
love will always guide me and he will
be proud of the granddaughter
he has raised.
