Lost Without You

Author's Note: This is written based on my grandmother's death last October. Following an ABBA pattern, I feel as if it captures the pain of separation from a loved one. Yay for my first post on this blog :)

An unimaginable existence 

Without you guiding me

A never ending misery

Detached by so much distance.

Though you rest peacefully

Your spirits cloud my presence

Your laughter echoes from heaven

And leaves me in melancholy.

Slipping from your grasp 

As I return to reality

Which once held glee

Drifting away leaving a barren gap.

That summer, when I left

For the airport to fly home

You had advised me to fly and roam

But never returned, as you were greeted with death.
