Happiness

I dedicate this poem in memory of my grandma.

I remember all the times we hung.

You tried to protect from my own shadow.

The hardship of the lessons you put me through made me realise how much you loved me.

I love you, I remember you teaching me the hard lessons, like two wrong don't make a right.

Kill em' with kindness.

The thing is my respect runs so deep with you because you are my mother.

You taught me to fight, you taught me to never give up.

I write this poem -- in your memory.

For everything you have done, for all the good, all of my love.
