Undying

I think it's been over two years since she died. I still miss my grandma most of the time, even when I'm away from home, there are nights I'd suddenly think about her. I miss our bonding moments, her stories, and her cooking. Today, mom and I had time to do some cleaning, and the first part of our operation house cleaning is to give away some old stuff and clothes that we can't use anymore. Since grandma had a lot of clothes stuck on her old cabinet, mom and I sorted everything out. We spent almost two hours and finally decided to let go most of my grandma's clothes. While scattering everything on the floor, we both learned that grandma kept old clothes of my grandpa who died even before I was bored. Clearly, she loved him 'til her last breathe.

He left her too early
"But I would love him still."
She said.

He knew she will miss him
"But I'd still think about him."
She said.

He was worried about her
"But I'll be strong even without you."
She said.

She picked up herself again
Wiped her tears away
And went on living everyday
Like as if he's still there

She'd smell his old clothes
When she misses him
Like as if, the years that gone by
Didn't vanish the scent of him
That was left there

He was her first love
And he was her last
