Pain, Sorrow, Happiness
Dedicated to my great grandmother, Bertha Davis. May your beautiful soul rest in peace
We all sit here, shattered inside and out
We love you so much, but we knew you were drained,
We just couldn’t bare to see you in pain
We’re going to have to learn what life without you is really about.
You were here today and gone tomorrow,
Our hearts broke and the cracks began to fill with sorrow.
We can’t help but let a tear or two escape.
We knew we would have to let you go someday,
but that doesn’t make it any easier.
The moments we shared on earth with you we will savor,
he released your soul because he knew you would be safer.
We all feel the pain, we all feel the sorrow,
and we will soon all feel the happiness.
We will forever remember your smile, so pretty miss
Miss motivation, inspiration, inspiring us to do better
—you’ve been our admiration.
Wiping our tears when we were a mess,
How could we ever forget your happiness?
