A Love Like That

My grandparents had something special. No one quite understood their bickering like they did; nor their unusual ways to show love without actually saying it.

When my grandfather passed away and I saw how torn she was, sobbing at his hospital bed when he took his last breath, it was honestly the most beautiful sight.

Soon, she too passed -- a broken heart.

Their funerals was like witnessing poetry unravel.

I've faced a lot of deaths in my life, since I was a young child, but --
I'd never seen Death be so beautiful In that moment.

And I knew I wanted a love like that.
