tell me what u think and fast: i need this tomorro!

in the gym, like always

April 26th, 2010

I wrote this poem for the poetry slam contest tomorrow. Tell me what you think:

 

You were there for me

You really cared for me

And I love you

As I know you still love me.

Grandpa's barely 67

And I'm hardly more than 11

I miss your smile but

I know you're smiling down from heaven.

I promised I wouldn't cry

During the wake I tried

But I broke that promise

When I said my last goodbyes because

I cried.

It's only been 12 months

But it feels like 60 years

And I must have cried

150 gallons of tears.

When I wake up

And morning hasn't come

I imagine us doing

all the things we've never done.

On my wedding day

When I walk down the aisle

I'll remember you

And I'll know you would have smiled.

Don't know what you owed God

Or why you had to give

But it was your time to go

And now it's our time

To live.
