A DAY TO END
January 28, 2016
I entered the silent room,
There was nothing except gloom,
I sat near him
And held his cold hands;
My eyes filled with tears
As I saw the man's eyes,
Which closed forever and never opened
And the big man's grin faded away to an end;
I wanted to shout and tell him,
"Please open your eyes,
And tell me new stories
We will laugh together
And enjoy the whole day once again;"
But I could not shout again-
Nor could I speak even-
Only I stared at my Grandpa's face,
Who left me forever that day.
