I Miss You Nan. This poem I wrote when my Nan passed away in 2008. I was really close to my Nan and my way of venting out how I was feeling was to write this poem. After I wrote this poem I felt like I had to share it with Nan. So I decided to recite this poem at her funeral. It was a very sad day considering I had moved away and I hadn't seen her since Mother's day that year and that I was planning to see her on my birthday. But God had other plans for her. And sadly my Nan passed away on my birthday at 5pm. After the funeral everyone was so proud of how my courage I had to get up there and recite the poem that I had written. Miss yooh so much Nan. RIP.

I think about you all the time,
And everytime it hurts to cry.
So much has happened in my life,
Tears are falling constantly,
My heart hurts everyday.
I think about your beautiful smile,
That I pray I see again someday,
The sweet smell of your perfume
Has slowly faded away.
But all your helpful teachings,
Are always here to stay.
I can't express how much you taught me,
So much I can't explain.
All the times I can remember,
Never once heard you complain.
So many hearts were broken,
The day God called you home.
It seems as though each one of us,
Were left to survive alone.
I know there was a reason,
That you had to leave.
To keep us in your watchful eyes,
So now in God I really do believe.
Please review and tell me what yooh think. I would like to know.
