To My Beautiful Grandmother



I miss you already

I love you

I wish I'd known you better

I wish you could've let yourself feel our Love for you


So vast

Unrelenting


You knew great sadness in this life

Great scars

Great baggage


I hope that you are free now

Free of the darkness

Free of the pain you knew so well

Free of expectation and obligation


Free.


I'd like to think you did the best you could

With all you've had to bear


So heavy

Painful comfort

A warm hand

Around your throat


I pray you can breath now

Light, easy, deep

I pray they have the pizza you like

God help them if they don't

I pray you can rest easy


Be free

Beautiful

Tortured

Brown-skinned woman


finally, Be Free.
