My mind is in turmoil, my heart is ablaze,
My tears will not cease, no matter what I say,
At night the sadness is ever so clear,
For the loss of my beloved granddaughter so dear.
Memories and laughter, my thoughts still remain,
Though her absence will never be the same,
I miss her softly sweet smile and touch,
After all she was my beloved crutch.
My eyes behold the emptiness of my life,
Where I cry and sob through my daily strife,
My days are an abyss of heartache and pain,
With no way to express the grief that I feign.
An aching deep in my heart without an end,
My horizons dark, my light bends,
The stillness of a dark, cloudy sky,
Reveals the awfulness deep inside.
