Grand

[iofthemourning]

(How can I miss someone I do not know?)

The way time works eludes me.
Intelligence, Fervor, Hope, none are marred by time.
Are your mistakes, your love, my mistakes, my love?
So why don't I know you?
Was it not important to you? To me?
I never even had a chance,
to make you proud
embarrassed
ashamed
joyed
inspired
regretful of what can't be.
In harmony, my grandparents, with the choices I've made.

(How can I miss someone I may never know?)

The way life works evades me.
I want to be what I can't know.
Are my mistakes, my love, your mistakes, your love?
So why don't I know you?
Will I know you, like I was never known?
Will you think I don't care, because I'm not there?
You might be sad
gay
strong
artistic
regretful of what can't be.
In harmony, my grandchildren, with the choices we've made.
