Ms Victoria Mckie
My eyes begin to
water at the edges
of this thought, you
taught me many
things I mean I
crawled, I stood, I
walked,
and though you
have been gone so
long your memory's
still with me, I'm
talking bout you
Grandma, Ms.
Victoria McKie.
You left when I was
9 which shows alot
of years have
passed, the thought
as bright as day the
time when I was
near you last,
and if I knew that
time would be the
final of my life, I
would've held you
tighter like the stars
embrace the night.
I hope you're proud
of me, I try my best
and Heaven knows,
I live a life which
shows I'll be in
Heaven when I go,
I realize that I
haven't done it
perfect to the T, I
know that you'd still
love me, that is one
true certainty.
The day of August
29th in 1926, is
when your life
began without you, I
would not exist,
and this is my
attempt to let you
know that you are
missed, I'd give my
final cent to feel
your lips give me a
kiss.
We used to sit and
read, a lifelong love
I'd learn and keep,
and stroke creative
fires that now wildly
burn in me,
can't help getting
emotional, the
tears, it burns to
see, your presence,
so influencing the
man I learned to be.
I shared you with all
others but I'm
selfish to a fault, I
knew I was your
favorite deep within
my heart of hearts,
you showed me
with your love and
patience each and
every day, it's safe
to say you proved
yourself in each and
every way.
In sitting here and
writing this my
teardrops start to
fall, the weight of
these emotions,
there's no way to
stop them all,
it's hard to keep
composure when
you feel that love
was stole, away so
very early and in
turn it steals your
soul.
I hope that where
you are you're very
happy; Pearly
Gates, I know God
had good reasoning
for taking you away,
and on the day we
meet again you'll
surely know it's me,
I love and miss you
Grandma, Ms.
Victoria McKie.
