Making my way to your porch
Searching for comfort there
Walking up your steps
Only to find an empty chair
I sit down and light up just like we would do
But one things missing
It’s you.
I try to choke down one more drag before I leave.
Because it’s just not the same
When it’s only me.
Your everywhere
In my words, in my thoughts and in my dreams
I can’t bear the thought
You’re just a memory.
I miss you Granny.
I wasn’t ready to say goodbye.
So ‘til the next late night porch visit
With one more cig and one more cry
That was sweet. .
That was sweet.

thank you :)
I wrote this a few days after she was taken from us. Miss her so much.
