My Dear Granny

Never did I believe in kindness

But you embraced it in me

Being a teacher, taught me a lesson: to love

Told me; inside you, let it groove

With you, I've felt alive

In your presence, I've felt so bright

In my mind, the thought always wandered

Without you, will I be able to survive?

The delicious food you made,

The sweet surprises you had

Wanting more, made everyone fight

Believe me, I have seen the whole world

With your sight

Even if you were in pain

You faced the world with a smile

Always welcomed everyone with open arms

Always were peace and calm

The times I didn't score good,

Which made me feel bad

Those were the times you made me

Feel glad

Those hand-knitted sweaters by you

Will always stay with me

Their touch gives me your hug and care

Wearing them never lets me face a nightmare

In my heart, you will have the biggest place

Never should this, thought strike you

That in there, you are trapped in a case

Trust me, now that you are gone

My heart feels like being pierced by a knife

In my pool of love, you have made the deepest dive

Tell me, weren't you afraid of heights?

Now that you're in heaven, isn't that high?

To accept that you are absent,

I always sigh

I'm really happy you are rid of pain

My best friend I loved you and always will

I'll wait for you everyday by the window sill
