Dear Grandma, how are you?

It’s been quite a while

We don’t talk that much

It was never your style

There’s not much I miss

I’m sorry to say

I don’t know you that well

Cause you kept it that way

I know you were brave

An adventurous soul

I know you were rough

Always wanting control

I think that you liked us

The term “Love” is too strong

Well, you liked all my siblings

You thought I came out wrong

I cried when mom called me

No emotion was heard

It was rough for a day

The hours were blurred

But I’m alright now

The sadness is gone

It was all far too easy

For me to move on

It’s a little depressing

I can still hear your voice

But there’s no tears to shed

You made your choice

I think Dad is sad

It’s kinda hard to tell

He gets kinds quiet

But he’s not one to dwell

Grandpa’s moved on

It was really quite fast

He’s now remarried

A year hadn’t passed

You did leave a mark

Though it’s mostly online

Your kids need some therapy

They’re not doing fine

So, I hope that your happy

Wherever you are now

Because We certainly are

It all worked out somehow

This is your legacy

I hope that you’re proud

We almost miss you

Our crying’s not loud

Goodbye, Grandma

This talk was quite nice

It felt therapeutic

But I have some advice

There’s much more to life

Than Fortune and Fame

You realized too late

Much to your shame

Please send some love

And some care down below

Your children all miss you

Though they don’t let it show

Don’t be withholding

Don’t raise your tone

If you hurt those around you

You’ll end up alone

Death bed confessions

Are not nearly enough

Too soothe all the pain

Left from being too rough

Show affection sometimes

To the family you’ve got

Lest your work throughout life

Shall all be for naught

I love you, Grandma

Though maybe I shouldn’t

So I’ll hug my dad for you

The way that you wouldn’t

Goodbye, Grandma

Wherever you may be

Everyone’s okay now

They’re finally free
