criminal of cardiac
be free!
my heart yearns for the bosom of my grandmother
but her head lays in my palms
nestled in warmth
from a cold and indifferent scalp
i long to be with you
to see your soft smile again
to be cradled in your arms
full of strength
replenished
from your current weak and fragile state
but i am thankful
to god
that he brought you home
far before you forgot my face
or name
huddled next to your lifeless body
begging
"remember me remember me remember me"
although your mumbles incoherent
the last words i made out from your dry lips
"i love you"
these words lingered across my body
oh how
i ache to hear them again
