Gone for years
For exact reference - 10
Do you realize I wasn't even
2 back then?
And then five years ago
BAM!
You're back in my life
It baffles me - how you can pretend
Nothing out of the ordinary
happened
Ignoring your oldest granddaughter for years; no explanation
worthy of giving
So when I was small
I'd ask: "Mommy, what's wrong with Grandma?"
Again I'd ponder: "Why doesn't she ever talk to me?"
Don't for a second think I regret it.
Now that I know you,
I know prosperous things happen
without you
My life is complete; I don't need your love to feel secure
And I hope you're happy
With the way your life has fallen
The deck has been dealt and
you got screwed.
Just realize that you'll die;
As all people do
Never knowing how it would feel
To have a granddaughter.
But don't regret it
you chose your own fate!
My heart is full and there's
no place for a heartless bitch
Know that you missed out - not me.
I can't help but cackle, thinking how you must feel
When talking to women your own age
about the 'simple pleasures of life'
that grandmothers speak of.
While they spend time with Kelly and Sue
Who do you tell them you're spending time with?
Oprah and Regis?
Just remember it all happened because of you
You will die alone
I will not willingly attend your funeral; or even
send you flowers
You may mask your evil with
Church and a silly laugh
But when you stand before God
Your act won't work on him
And
You will die alone.
Die alone.
You, grandma, will die alone.
