Mother And Son

A tired woman filled with fear,
Her angry child sheds a tear.
A last embrace consoles the soul,
While evil forces take their toll.
Fleeting moments, silent cries,
The light extinguished from her eyes.
Her hand held tight, a child's kiss,
A mother's touch her son will miss.
A mighty fight, she struggled so,
A battle lost to deadly foe.
The room grows dark, her child near, 
His Mom at peace in heaven's care.

My grandpa passed away in March 2016. He was really important in my life, and I love him so much. Yes, I am only 12, but we had so many special moments. He taught me basketball, soccer, lacrosse, how to ride a bike, and so much more. I love you, Pops! You will be forever in my heart.
