Reflections
Love is an unforgettable thing
Though many people forget
How much they love their dearest ones
Until their eyes are wet

The water helps the flowers grow
My grandma was my aid
Her warm and gentle touch
She taught me not to be afraid

My loved ones are forever
Locked up in my heart
I'll always keep them in there
Never will we part

When someone very close to you
Is living a life robust
Embracing them with love
Is truly a must

But only when those loved ones
Don't notice that you're there
Or even when they leave this world
You have to shed a tear

Tears show emotion
Not just what others see
It has a special impact
on someone I call me

I remember her
Though she doesn't remember me
Last she said my name
Is the best memory

Memories are special
Never will they repeat
Memories of my grandma
They are so concrete

Me and my grandma
My grandma and I
The two of us together
Our love can reach the sky

So listen my dear reader
To what I'm trying to say
Love and treasure those moments
Each and every day
