My prayers go out to the children of my Aunt Jo. I believe I may have only met my aunt once or twice. It sad to think she was the last of her family generation.

Each day I walk into your room,
Grief, my emotions, does consume,
Your bed is now empty and bare,
The void in my heart is there to
compare.
Your teddy bear sleeps where your
head should be,
Motionless and still like my soul
within me,
I sat in the middle of your bed
today,
And looked out the window at the
sky covered in grey.
I thought about the memories we
shared over the years,
And in that moment came a storm of
tears,
In place of all the laughter and
smiles,
Was sorrow that lasted for miles and
miles.
You were more than a grandmother
to me,
You were my best friend whom made
me complete,
We had a special bond that was
just for us two,
Full of moments that no one else
knew.
I will miss all that we had,
All the good and the bad,
Our memories I will always keep,
For they are alive while you sleep.
