Losing my Granny

I thought i had forever,

to spend with you,

but that never,

came true.

i was young yet old,

when we found out,

as the truth to me was sold,

all i wanted to do was shout.

you were dying of cancer,

you were so very strong,

my prayers weren't answered,

i thought maybe we will have long.

but january came and your time,

was nearly over,

i would have given every dollar and dime,

and every 4 leaf clover.

for some more time with you granny,

as i loved you so very much,

just as warbucks loved annie,

i loved you such.

11 years on now,

the pain is still there,

im trying to allow,

my heart to make room to spare.
