25 - Evelyn Tamuno-Alali Ezekiel-Hart

I lost my grandmother this morning
There are no words with which to paint her life or the memories she has left with me
I do not grieve like one ought to when the one that they love passes on
She saw it coming and, two weeks ago, left us with final words
She prayed for me
Hugged me
Told me not to cry
She knew that she was leaving
She died in her sleep
I'm not sad or angry
I am glad that I spent time with her
And was able to see her one last time
