Dreams are like a box of chocolates, if you hold on and think about them for to long it will all start to melt away.


what am i to do and what am i to say

when the very woman i love is going away

my body is eradicated emotions are aggravated

and this situation is something that i didnt want to be contemplated

i don't know what to do or what to say i just want the best

waking up looking at life, stuck in this eternal staring contest

sitting here, waiting, thinking to myself which one of us is going to blink first

that must have been me cause i missed when you took your last breath

i never knew how serious this was until i heard you scremaing silently, that's when i new its depth


The author's comments:

this piece is about the last time i seen my grandmother before she died, which was about six months ago, i didn't know her condition was as bad as it was or even close to live threatening, but just goes to show that people can be taken out of your life at any time.

I think this piece does reveal how this loss has emotionally affected you. It's very lyrical. Because it's rather lyrical, I would add some punctuation, or make some obvious spacing, so that it's a little easier and clearer to read. Other than that, great piece.

Great job, I do suspect some lyrics in you... have you checked out song corner? I think you`d be able to turn one of your poems into a song if you`re up to it.

Emotional, heart wrenching topic. I'm sorry for your loss. As a piece, I feel like the rhymes r forced and the beat off in places, but still very emotional piece and well-written.
