Grandma

by RachelAnne   Jul 29, 2005


Grandma! OH NO!
I just got off the phone!
Your in the hospital again?!?
What now? you got your second wind?

You are my last relative besides me mum and dad!
Please do not leave me now!

Your mum died a year ago on my birthday!
and now as my birthday is coming you too?
I loved you two!
and now this? it can not be true!

What to do... what to do
All I can do is sit in my room
typing on my computer
Thats all I can do!

Surely you can make it...
I do not know what to say
Like a mother to me
Its been two now three?

I finished my story
yet i still kept going
you told it back to me
now im growing so weary

I wish I was there
I could stroke your hair
I DO really care
this is a nightmare

What can I do?
I have nothing to do!
What did you do?

I will type to you
and maybe this will turn into a 2
maybe one day this wont be true

I never got to tell you what happened to me
I still need to tell you what these scars are on me

My heart is bleeding
as is so what yours is
they told me so

I hate it being home-alone
you are not here
and i am just on the phone

**I do not know what to do I am home alone and i just got a phone call that my gmas in the hospital She is the only grandma i have left... maybe I will just continue to make more scars i know it doesnt rhyme but it is the only thing i can think of to do!

just do whatever

    Rachel,

    Before I make some critique on the poem, your note at the end of the poem mentioned that you are alone at home with no adults around? Can you ask the parent of a friend to assist/help you? Just an idea.

    Moving on to the critique for the poem, this poem is nicely done as the anguish and the sense of urgency of the situation comes througn quite well. Good work and keep writing.

    I hope that your Grandma gets better.

    Take care!

    Warmest regards,

    Steve

    P.S. Thanks ever so much for your critique on my work, much obliged.
