To My Grandmas

To My Grandmas

A Poem by Des
"

I love my grandma. I wrote this to show her I understand. You don't have to worry anymore.

"
I know why she does those things
Shes getting old
And she feels it in her bones
She wonders how much longer she has
She doesnt like to wear black
She tries to cherish the moments
But she hates feeling broken
Her days have numbers
And shes scared to leave her lovers
She finds comfort in alcohol and beer
It helps her forget the fear
She never really went to church
But now she feels the thirst
People think she goes looking for fights
No one knows that the battles inside
She takes a couple more shots
She tries to forget her thoughts
But shes getting older
She will try to stay sober
So she can have more days
While her body decays
Even though she lost her way
She found mercy through Gods grace
Now she has faith
While looking at her grave
