Poetry
Today was my grandfather's funeral. I wrote and read out this poem without the third verse in it because when my mum read it she burst into tears and asked me not to read it, but I've shared it here for one big reason. Grandad had alzheimers. I was talking to my sister about it afterwards and she said that there was no point in trying to hide that he had it. It is part of my memories of him. So I decided to share on here with you, if you want to read.

"I will never leave you," he promised. PROMISE (n.) \'prä-məs\ - a declaration that one will do or refrain from doing something specified Promises. Don't ever make promises that you're sure that you won't keep. - She's damn different. She can spin your world in different angles just to prove that she's a great person; that she is capable to leave a mark in history books without any help. However, like in all stories, problems arise, but how could she face them, if she is the main reason that sparked up every emotion, fear, and the truth; she's involved somehow and barely notice it. She'll probably face it, by avoiding it, by unconsciously making the problems worse every minute. All Rights Reserved © joey ; wxntrlcs [ 2015 ]
